Couldn't pass up a deal on these. Opinions through a PM9? - sparingly, of course. A few here and there to ensure reliability.

Don't really care what Kahr says, they'd just be covering their butts. Lawyers pretending to be engineers. More interested in 1st hand experience.

Probably as hot a round as you can get for SD. SAAMI says 17% over standard pressure. Surely these guns are over-built a little. Breech face would be my concern if given a steady diet. Springs are cheap.

No guessing, educated opinions welcome. Would shoot these through a Glock or a Sig without a worry.....

Yea, that's the one. Shipping fees suck, though. Total with fees - $24/box. But that's what I'd pay for 20 Buffalo Bores. Showed up in 2 days. Very last review out of 66. I'm dizzy now. If I feel nervous about it after a couple, I'll just blast them out of a Beretta and a Glock I've got. Thanks.

Shipping does suck.
But what I've found is, let’s just say for argument shipping is $15 bucks for one box.

Guess what shipping is for two, four, eight boxes? $15 bucks!
I think I paid the same for 500 rounds!

Pick carefully, shop around and most importantly buy in volume.

My Walmart carries this same ammo. I have shot 2 mags through two different MK9's and really could n't feel a difference in recoil between it and the 124+P.

Here's a discussion on this ammo from a few years ago. Reply #12 was very interesting IMHO.

I have used Winchester Ranger 127 gr. +P+ in my PM9. No problems so far.

Reply #5 was very interesting, too, IMHO.

Yea, you're right. Try to consolidate my purchases with CTD.

It was interesting. My concern stems from issues I have with a CW9 where the breech face has gotten beat up. Only shot target loads through it and never shot any hot loads because I never carry it. Looks like this. Sent it back to the factory once and they said "looks OK to me". Huh???

But my PM9 and P380 breech faces are clean and I've shot a lot of hot loads through them.
