If a load is too hot, it will beat a P38 to death before it will kill a good P08. I ran some NATO spec 9x19 through my Mauser P08 without issues, but there is a difference between doing the occasional 50 rounds or shooting it constantly.

So basically I would keep it out of the P38 and the P08 and get some white box Winchester 115gr instead. That works well.
