I enjoy shooting the .30 Luger over 9mm. But I am a handloader. My preference is based on the fact that it was the originally designed caliber for the Luger, and the fact that its a light-recoiling, fun cartridge to load and shoot. My personal belief is that bottleneck calibers function better in autoloaders; but, that is not based on scientific, provable fact. Bill
