I’d say start with either Federal HST or Hornady Critical Defense/Critical Duty. There are a number of good 9mm loads, but those two seem to be common and easier to find. Of the two, the Hornady has seemed to me to be a little more affordable. I run either the 124 grain Critical defense, or the 135 grain +P Critical Duty (depending on the pistol). But I’d be just as confident with the Federal HST.

The exception: I keep 115 grain +P Corbon DPX in my G43.....mostly because it develops considerable power in a short barrel, AND because I still had a couple of boxes of it laying around.
