Thanks for the many replies guys. We tested both,he's about a half second faster with the 9mm,accuracy wise he's about the same. How would the 147 gr Gold Dot compare to the 124 or 124 +p?

And I’ll make it murkier for you. We’ve issued 124 Gold Dot for a long time with no issues.
Just a dog chauffeur that used to hold the dumb end of the leash.
I *personally* prefer heavy for caliber loads, but that's more voodoo then science. The differences seem to be largely angels dancing on pinheads. My department tested several different loads when we went back to 9mm from .40S&W and ultimately approved several but have only issued HSTs in 147 standard pressure and 124+P.
Sorta around sometimes for some of your shitty mod needs.
One of my former beat partners put a couple 230 grain Gold Dots to good use a couple nights ago (from over 20 yards). I'm sure a 9mm Gold Dot would have worked just as well, though.
