What do those of you with an XD9SC use for defensive loads; for the range? What about the other 9mm variants?

 

[Hornetsnest]

Federal Hydra-shoks for CCW

That, Winchester, PMC, whatever for the range (still avoiding wolf)

 

[dolanp]

For me it's Speer Gold Dots 124gr +P for CCW/defense, and CCI Blazer or WWB for range.

I have 147 gr Fedral Hydrashok JHPs and 124 gr +P Winchester Ranger T's for mine.

 

[Lumberjack98]

Defense - Remington Golden Saber

Range - WWB

 

[WaltherP99]

I heard Cor-Bon +P are excellent SD rounds!

 

[XD_Dan]

defense rounds: Winchester Black Talons
range rounds: WWB

 

[Hornetsnest]

I heard Cor-Bon +P are excellent SD rounds!

I used them in my .45 I had...They kicked like a motherf**ker

 

[Captain Ray]

Federal 147 gr. hydroshock for CCW. For plinking, UMC, WWB, pretty much whatever is on sale. I wont use Wolf ammo though.. I have read to many negative things about it to even bother.

Speer Gold Dots 124gr +P for CCW/defense

[XD BACKUP GUN]

I carry FMJ in the winter.....JHP/EFMJs do not penetrate heavy coats well!
Otherwise I use EFMJ and Hydrashocks in the summer!
This goes for my .45ACP and XD 9MM SC

 

[msidner]

Speer GDHP fan here.

 

[aiformula]

Federal EFMJ or Hydra Shok for carry

range is whatever is cheap but not Wolf or CCI Blazer aluminum. Winnie White Box and gov't surplus stuff is about all I've run through my nines for the last couple years.

I carry Winchester 147gr XTPs in my Hi-Power. If they feed well and print well in the XD, they'd make a great carry load for you. My XD is a 40, so I cannot help you in what feeds/shoots best in a 9mm XD, but my Hi-Power prints real well with the XTPs.
