Looking for ammo recommendations for a Kel Tec P 11. I know there are many out there. For .45 ACP I checked out about eight or nine rounds. Figured I'd cut that down some this time around.
Sidearms & Scatterguns 9mm Ammo recommendation for 3 inch barrel.

What bkglock said. I run the 135 Hornady CD +p in all of my pistols, regardless of barrel length (G34 w/ Lonewolf Alphawolf threaded, G19X, and G26). IMO, you get the best of available ballistics tech with the CD 135 +p. If you'd like something that penetrates a little less, the Atomic 124 bonded +p is outstanding.
Remington Golden Saber is hard to argue with.

I carry a few different 9mm pistols and stoke all of them with Hornady Critical Duty 124 gr. +P - Sig P290, Beretta Px4, and an old S&W 6906.

I have always used critical defense in the shorter barrels (minus my pocket carry). The standard HST is an awesome choice as well.
Shot placement is the only difference between self defense stops.... 38/9/45/40 - it all comes down to shot placement.
What rounds fire 100% in your pistol?
Do you like the impulse of 115 - 150 grain the best? what gives you the push/ snap you like?
The Winchester T series work well... more difficult to find the LEO labeled boxes....

I'm using the 147gr. Winchester Defend in a Walther PPS M2. Hermosabeach though has it right, reliable, accurate, and the type of recoil impulse you prefer.
