    i would like to hear from others as well. I have had no issues so far with hornady critical duty or the hornady XTP. i have not tried any others though.

      I've used federal HST 147 Gr., golden saber 124 gr. hornady XTP And Hornady Critical Defense. All without a single malfunction.

        I'd stay away from all of it. If it hits you it could be painful.

          good to hear on the hst. i had heard they were a little longer than some others and may cause a problem. i might have to pick some up and try it now, i like the idea of 147 gr and standard pressure. An idea of the ballistics and expansion out of the short barrel?

            Winchester PDX1 124gr is good to go.

                Can't help you there. I've always carried 147 gr. HST because i was impressed with the expansion and penetration statistics, but recently I saw a video on the hornady Critical Defense rounds and they are specifically formulated for short barrel guns. They are also made to penetrate thick clothing and still expand 1.5 times diameter and penetrate 12 ins. consistently, while retaining bullet weight.

                  When I saw this I was going to say you’d get more replies by asking what does work.
                  Anyway.. Gold Dot- 124+p and 147, WWB- 115 and 147 JHP, UMC- 115 JHP all flawless here...PM9.
                  If a sign could stop evil….They’d make holsters for them!!

                    I've used critical duty and gold dots with no problems at all in my CM9.
                    The only thing better than having all the guns and ammo you'd ever need would be being able to shoot it all off the back porch.

                        Call S&W they may replace your air weight.

                              No one can tell you what will work in your particular gun. Every gun is different. Only your gun can tell you what it likes and it ain't talking. Feed it any good quality self-defense ammo and see if it spits it out or throws it up.
                              Never trust anyone who doesn't trust you to own a gun.
