What JHP do you find works Best in CW9? I pick up my New CW9 Tuesday, want to narrow my choices in SD ammo so I only need to test a couple out (and save $$) before choosing.

ive had very good results with remington 124gr. golden sabres. standard pressure loads shoot dead on for me.

Remington GS 124gr standard or +P has worked well in all my 9mm CW9 MK9 PM9 my favorite is Speer gold dots 124+p. I think speer makes top notch ammo.

I use Speer Gold Dot 124gr +p. Shoots to point of aim, and I've never had any feed issues with it. Actually, I've never had any feed issues with my CW9, with any ammo.

124 gr. +P and standard velocity Federal HSTs work in my CW9.

kahrs are not ammo sensitive, never have been, find what shoots perfect, all defense rounds are good. 99.,995% of us will never have to test them "live" anyhow, so go for complete reliability over everything else.

I use Hornady Critical Defense in my "smaller" 9's and 380's for two reasons-they always expand when fired out of short barreled pistols (even though they're standard pressure rounds) and the profile of the bullet is even better than a full metal jacket bullet.

If your pistol will shoot hardball, it'll shoot Critical Defense-guaranteed

No need to get fancy. Just use Federal JHP 115 in either standard or +P+. They feed like ball ammo, they're proven in the field, and they're cheap. $17 for a box of 50 at Cheaper than Dirt.

I use the standard velocity ones because the have the same velocity characteristics as my cheap practice ammo. But I ran 100 rounds of +P+ as part of my break-in, and they shot just fine, too.
