    Definitely not the 124 and 147 grain bullets.The 115gr in +P and +P+ is the best in 9mm out of 4-5" barrels. I would chronograph both the 90 and 115 grain bullets out of very short barrels and go with the one that calculates to have the highest energy.

    I would test fire each and shoot whatever turned out to be the most accurate out of that particular weapon.Velocity is good, but accuracy is critical
