Same here, however....
If for some reason I was forced to carry a 9mm 115-grain JHP, I'd probably go with a 9mm 115-grain XTP JHP like this-

I can agree with not liking 115 gr. for hollow point loadings, but I think it makes sense for FMJ to go on the lighter side when you are guaranteeing sufficient penetration... best to get highest velocity in this case..
This ammo looks suspiciously like the M1152 load. 115 grain, FMJ FP. Listed at 1300 fps. Comes in brown boxes.
Pretty good groups out of my HK P30L. 1.375" in the x-ring at 20 yards.

The first indication a bad guy should have that I'm dangerous is when his
disembodied soul is looking down at his own corpse wondering what happened.
Okay, dammit, where did you get it?
Interesting that the rationale for JHP is to 'reduce collateral damage.' I wonder who'll actually get it and if they will be using it from a subgun or not.

I can't speak for the Army because they do strange things, but the people in the blue who currently are issued JHP are: special operations troops such as PJs, CCTs, and SOW/T; sometimes the TAC/P dudes get it but only if they're assigned to an Army unit that would also have it; all AF OSI agents; and last but not least all Security Forces troops for CONUS LE and base defense. That won't change when we get saddled with the M18s and the new rounds.

Is it this stuff? They list MV as 1190 fps, pretty much standard.
