I carried a Glock M19 9mm from 1989 until I retired in 1996 as a federal agent. Our Duty Load was a Winchester 147 grain JHP round that served the purpose. I would have preferred the Winchester 115 grain Silvertip.

Any 9mm JHP is FAR BETTER than the Ball ammunition our troops are mandated to carry, in my opinion. As to the Question: "Is the 9mm the best caliber?" I think not. As an agent, I often carried a Colt M1911 .45ACP stoked with 200 grain JHP rounds in addition to the Duty M19 9mm Glock. I think the .45 ACP is superior to any 9mm and any ammunition.
