  • Which hollow points are you using

    Hey guys, just wanted to see what hollow points you and your Kahrs prefer. In my other guns I prefer gold dots but as we all know it really depends on what each particular gun feeds well. So lets hear it "What's in your Kahrs"

    Gold Dots... 90-gr, 124-gr +P, 180-gr and 230-gr... Short Barrel where available... all but the .380... where I use Buffalo Bore or Underwood +P Gold Dots. Yee... Haa!

    Bonded Remington Golden Sabers are good, too... 180-gr and 230-gr I use in longer barrels.

      I run the same stuff in both my P9 and TP9. One of the following, depending on how much I've got 'in stock' here in the safe.

      Winchester PDX1 147gr
      Hornady Critical Duty 135gr (standard and/or +p)

          Gold Dots, Critical Duty or Federal HST for all of my Kahrs. Depending on which one of the 3 I have in stock or can find.

            Glad to see many of you are having success with the gold dots. I am hoping mine pass the reliability tests thru my Kahr.

              9mm Hornady Critical Duty +P in my CM9. They feed great and give great performance.

                I am a fan of 124gr Gold Dot bullets loaded to a +P level from several smaller companies.

                  Anyone using 147gr. 9mm hollow points? Any problems in a CM9?

                    I've used both the 124 gr and 147 gr Gold Dots in my CM9 without any problems.

                      Good to know. I prefer 147 gr. HP for carry.

                        RossA:

                        I find the Winchester Ranger RA9B 147Gr Bonded HP's shoot well through my PM9.

                        The 147's shoot more pleasantly than do the 115's or the 124's for me.

                        I don't own a CM series, but I suppose the feel is the same.

                          Used both the Federal 124gr HST and Federal 135gr +P tactical bonded. I think I am gonna stay with the tac bonded. Recoil is a touch stiffer but not bad. Wish I had a chronograph to see the velocity difference though.

                            My PM9 eats 147gr Gold Dot and 147gr Federal HST just fine.

                              Gold Dots or Critical Defense, depending on what's available. No problems with either in my CM9.
