  • Pm9 Favorite Type Ammo?

    Looks like a new PM9 will accompany the PM45 soon and wondered what ammo tends to be your favorite?

    For range work, Speer Lawman TMJ 124gr.

    For self defense, Federal HST 124gr.

      From what I've read on this forum almost any quality ammo will run fine. The trouble seems to be Fiocchi and some of the other cheaper stuff. I just got a PM9 and have only run Federal 115 gr FMJ RN through it at the range. No problems. Just don't buy 500 or 1000 rounds until you have tested it in the gun.

        I have run a boatload of Blazer brass, Speer Lawman and American Eagle. No issues with any. Golden Saber 124g for carry.

          Steel case is not recommended.

              My PM9 (and K9) eats various grains of PMC, Sellier & Bellot, Magtech, Blazer Brass and Aguila range ammunition without a hiccup. My choice for carry ammunition is GDHP 124 grain +P, which functions flawlessly.

                My PM9 eats just about anything.....but it's normally fed Remington UMC 115, Blazer Brass 115 & 124, Aguila 124, and Federal 115. Carry: HST 124 & 147 (both standard and +P)

                  Federal HST in my Kahr MK9 and my Springfield EMP 9.

                  Any of these will work well!

                    Keep in mind, Freedom Munitions and Freedom Ammunition are different companies. Never had a problem with Freedom Munitions products. I have had a problem with Freedom Ammunition, and will never buy it.

                      At the range, what ever ammo on sale. Carry is Federal HST. No problems with any ammo on my CM9.

                        Much thanks for all the replies and suggestions, now to try and find some good deals out there!

                        OT: Interesting story, found a PM9 local and talked with the gentleman and he wanted to take my picture and have me go make copies of DL, CCW, CCW papers and sign off from course teacher, Address etc. I honor his opinion and concerns yet felt like he was asking for too much especially after talking with him for an extended time on phone as he also spent many years in same city and we knew many mutual things. Bowed out and hung up phone wishing him well and returned call from a friend that I just missed and plan on renewing CCW with Friday and told him story and he was like no prob, I got your back. I happen to have a brand new in box PM9 in the safe at home you can have for $200.00 =)
                        So interesting how when we ask we receive and with him a simple ATF bill of sale copy is fine.

                        PM9 arrives Friday and excited to use it same day and likely take shooting part of test with it. If it's anything like my PM45 I will be very satisfied.

                        Have a feeling LCP will not be with me as often on these 100F plus days.

                          Ammo, I have been shooting Federal BP9 at range and for carry I am hooked on the new Colt solid brass 115 grain HP. It's only loaded to 1150fps. Easy to shoot well fast.

                            I like high velocity XTPs. Underwood has some nice ones. The shape of the XTP feeds nicely as a bonus.
