| Why that particular ammo ?? Have you checked the tests of the various rounds ? Some of the bonded is not as good as claimed. See www.stoppingpower.net One of the standard pressure loads that has always performed well in tests and on the street is 115 gr Federal 9BP .Federal also has a 135 Hydra-Shok. |

| i would look at double tap 147 gr. if your looking for a fast heavy bullet. or double tap 124gr or winchester 127gr +p+ will both outperform federal 135 gr. and easier to find |

| 147 gn Hydra shoks. Made to expand after hitting heavy clothing, that's what the post is for.
A bad day at the range is better than a good day at work.

| Corbon DPX is a 115 gr +P load which penetrates very well despite the weight which is true of typical all copper Barnes bullets.More penetration than that would be a FMJ. Most JHPs are designed for about 12" penetration in ballistic gelatin for defense [people] . The 9mm is certainly not designed for bear .A 40 or 45 would be much better and the best of the autos would be the 10mm. |
