Do you think that with these Winchester 115gr my P08 is more protected to break again or must I use another brand?

The lighter bullet will develop less pressure for the same velocity.
The INDEP ammo was around 1350 fps for a 115 grain bullet. And I shot plenty of it in my Luger.
Charts values are all very well but...
One important thing. 1930s Mauser made Lugers have stronger recoil springs than the ones from WWI, the ammo was increased in power in the meanwhile.
For your last question. We are using 75 year old plus guns. No one can tell for sure what they went through all those years. So, no guaranties whatsoever.
