9mm Luger +P And +P+ Ammo
I've tried some of the hotter 9mm loads, they really hammer your slide.

Just an idea, maybe stack them, jacketed hollows and jacket soft point. Plan on multiple shots.

I've had good luck with silver tips feeding well in all my auto loaders. Some auto loaders can be finicky on what they will reliably feed. Instead of trying to tune my pistols to feed ammo, I shoot what works and leave the feed ramp alone. My High power won't reliably feed any old hollow point, some work better than others. Even the shape of the ogive in ball type ammo changes with bullet weight and can cause issues.

Just some thoughts.

Whatever you choose shoot a box or two, just to make sure it works well in your particular pistol.

I've only had one pistol (auto loader) in my life that would reliably feed and cycle anything I fed it (always), my HK P-7.
