You will only get the 115 side from me.. ;)

Others will be along soon to let you know of there experience!!

For me the 115s,be it WWB,STHP,GDHPs.. 8)

I stick with my "snappy" choice!! :)

IMO-I like em to zip in and expand..

I have been known to run FMJ in the winter also,to compensate for the heavy jackets and such..

Opinions forthcoming I am sure.. LOL

This is an interesting and complex subject which is fascinating to me and on which my views have changed over the years. Until I have some time to give it a little more thought and research,  here's a link to some "ruminations" I posted the other day in another thread:

In my current inclination to favor the "big and slow" school of thought, I'm probably going to be in the minority around here. Anyway, I'm here to learn and to share experience --not to teach . . . for that matter, not even to preach.   8)

I've had good luck with FMJ 115s as well as GoldDot 124s. No problems or complaints with either.

Just stick with the ammo that serves your purpose and works reliably, and you'll do okay.
