Got a chance to score G S 124 gr 9mm JHP from cdnn sports. What are the recommendations of the Rohrbaugh Brain Trust about this ammo? Yay/Nay?    Thanks in advance    Gene

Disregard first sentence in above post.Read it again and they are +p. Too early I guess.

I'm aware that I don't use +p ammo but, I wanted your(all of you) thoughts on the Golden Sabers. I'm new to the forum and I don't  recall reading anything about them. I have to say that I'm rather prejudiced against them, due to an experience with hard primers. So please give the benefit of your usage pro or con.   Thanks  Gene

I don't know about Golden Sabers but if they have hard primers avoid them like the plague in the R9. This pup won't hunt with hard primers.

I have shot probably four mags of 124 golden sabers with no malfunctions.  I think they are fine in my gun.

Just got back from the range where I tried to fire Lellier & Bellot 9mm 115 gr. FMC.  In 22 rounds I got 6 failed to fire.  I gave the remaining 25 rounds away.  The Gunsmith at the range, identified these as hard primer rounds and my experience bear this out.  I should have read the forum before I bought the ammunition.

I have put approximately 50 rounds of Magtech 9mm 115gr. through my R9 with good results.  I have seen several recommendations for carry ammunition.  Are there recommendations for a target round?
