I've used Federal 115 grain 9BP ammo through both my Interams Mausers and a Finnish M-23 without a problem. The bullet has a rather rounded profile and feeds perfectly in my guns, and the ammo has a extremely good reputation as a defense round. It is also not a hot round at all and a bit on the mild side. I don't plan on using them as defense guns, but I did want to see if they would function with factory hollow point ammo.

I've also had very good luck in my reloads with Remington 115 grain and 124 grain jacketed hollow points, though you have to pay attention to the overall loaded length and load them out to about the max. length possible.
