Hornady Critical Duty #90226 9mm 135gr +P FlexLock

   I wanted to see what the +P version was like

Not too shabby for a 9 minimeter:

Though I like the old 9BPLE load better:

  I didn't realize I already put that video and info on the sheet. I mainly picked them up because they were on sale like the 10mm version. My plan is to send Raggedyman a couple more of the 10's to see how they do at 1300 FPS. Don't know if it would be worth doing these over again?

Yes, Rman said he was going to pull them and hot rod them up a bit.

In the interest of curiosity it would be good to know how they perform at higher velocities.

Then we could always contact Hornady if our findings are good.

   I wonder if Hornady is open to a change? It appears PPU made a slight change but not what it really takes to get the 180gr HP to really work!

I tried once to get them to up their 200 grain XTP load, but they declined, saying it already was a "full power" load.

So I doubt it. I said that more tongue in cheek, but you never know. They may decide to increase it by 50 to 100 fps, which would be  a step in the right direction.

Edit: I wouldn't mind seeing these come out at least Winchester Silvertip velocities.
