9mm standard velocity Winchester 115gn and 124gn ammo is a good consistent product. Don't buy the NATO power version for use in Lugers, just the standard velocity stuff.

It's a fair bet that they load it with Winchester primers and Winchester 231 powder, which is a good consistent low smoke pistol powder that I use in reloading. Same thing as HP38 powder sold under the Hodgden brand name.

I have also used S&B 9mm ammo, which was good quality.

Dynamit Nobel (GeCo) 9mm is also good consistent ammo. I have several boxes and have never had problems with it. It's Swiss made, and the Swiss are particular about precision.
