    Golden saber seem to have the most rounded bullet of quality jhp. That 124g +p golden saber gets my vote.

      OK, I read that as breast feeding. Time to lay off the Silver Oak tonight, but I am still somewhat disappointed.

        I've had good luck with Speer Gold Dots in both 124 and 147 gr loads. Winchester PDX1 also works well.

            My PM9 has ate all kinds of decent jhp ammo and loves it all. No hiccups. Speer gold dots, rem golden sabres, Hornady HD, The Corbon 90 grainers. I like Gold dot 124's the best, but they all feed great.
            The CM series of pistols do not have the great polish job on the feed ramp that the PM series does. That can be easily corrected however.

                both my pm9 and cm9 dont like, " rem 115grn...jhp " (wallyword green 100 rnd box) they sometimes nose dive in my guns, using 6 rnd mags..but it doesnt happen with 115 fmj....now 124 grn and up it feeds everything so far....both guns have had a polish job.....seems rem jhp 115 grn slightly shorter overall length........

                      Speer 124-gr +P Gold Dots Short Barrel version... bonded, good performer for Kahr short barreled-pistols... and a favorite of large police departments... and Massad Ayoob.

                        Hydra-shoks cycle perfect in all my guns. I use 124 gr hydra-shoks in my pm9. I'm going to try the new federal HST's though, to see how they do. Why do you not want to run hydra-shoks anymore?

                            I did not know that, but I can say I have had:

                            CCI Gold Dot +P 124Gr
                            Federal HST +P 124Gr
                            Hornady Critical Duty +P 135Gr
                            Remington UMC 115Gr

                            All feed just dandy. Best is hard to say but for self defense I'd go with gold dot or federal hst.
