I bought a box of 9mm +P+ Saturday by mistake. Thought I had picked up the standard pressure and didn't notice it until after I got home. What's your thoughts on shooting in thru a Glock 17, 19 or Sig 320?
 
I wouldnt make it a habit but Id be surprised if a manufacture would sell ammo that would put you at risk.

Most of underwood and double tap is loaded hot. Shoot it up to break in a gun I guess. I wouldnt carry more than +p but that me.
 
Watched several reviews of +? ammo test. "Most" of the added FPS was minimal compared to the extra recoil and some of the hollowpoints performed worse from being pushed to fast and jacket separation (non bonded) and slight fragmentation occurred in others. That said velocity > grains usually but I think that bullets are designed to travel the speed of the normal rounds capabilities and messing with that doesnt always work out. Not sure how they get around this in magnum loads.
