Standard Pressure 125 Grain 9mm Defense Ammo ???
I know that most would prefer a caliber that starts with a 4 or even a 5, but I need some recommendations on a good 9mm standard pressure defense round.
Looking for a 125/24 grain or less round, that will usually feed reliably in a small autoloader & perform well from a 3" barrel.
Thank you

Hornady Critical Defense is, IIRC, standard pressure. It fed reliably from the Shield this summer.
I tested these out at Gunsite, I like em. Mike McNett's ammo

any standard pressure 9mm loads? I didn't see any, but don't ask my wife about my ability to find the obvious - or lack thereof...

Hornady Critical Defense is my choice in XD9C EDC and XDS9 backup carry (both 3"). Works fine and is accurate for me. I think there is a +P version so check the box for sure if you want standard.
Yep they do... sorry I just grabbed a link over there

I really like the 50 round box of Federal 115 grain JHP. standard velocity very good track record in actual shootings.

A few years ago I wandered into Cheaper than Dirt in McKinney Tx and discovered 15 boxes of the standard velocity Federal 115 JHP's (9BP) for $8.50 per box of 50. I asked if that was the correct price and the clerk said "I dunno, I guess so". Ran back for a shopping basket and bought all they had.I asked the checkout guy why it was so cheap and he said everybody wanted the +p and +p+ loads.
YEP 9BP That's what I was trying to remember. Federal
