why is all the good ammo out of stock?

Not sure why you're discounting 147gr 9mm? It expands very well (HST .75") and has no problems penetrating 12"...

Because the OP mentioned he might consider using that weight.

A lot of people put stock in the amount of energy a round delivers. When compared to the lighter +P+ loadings, 147gr is very low powered ammunition in 9mm.

That's why.

Well energy is one thing, but ballistic testing is another. Quite a few tests show 147gr 9mm to be as good if not better than your lighter loading +p rounds. .75" Diameter and 12+ inches is fine by me.

Did you mean .357SIG or Magnum?

If you are a believer in pressure wave wounding the +P+ rds are the way to go.

To each their own, i don't want to get hit with any of them.
