Postino:

Yes, the Hornady 124 grain FMJFP bullet is one of my favorites for the 9mm Luger pistol!!!

This particular bullet ("called the Air Force Bullet") was developed for our military, some 30 years or so ago, back when they were considering the adoption of a 9 mm pistol.

In a Luger, if loaded to 28.7 mm of O.A.L., this one functions the action perfectly, and is highly accurate!

By the way, I've seen data for the RCBS Lead 121 TC bullet, for the .38 Super, well into the 1,200 fps range, so it might be interesting for you to try them with the two fine cartridges you have mentioned above.
