CZ P-01 and carry/Defensive Ammo? What do u use?

like many others here, if i carry it, it's full of 9mm 124grn speer golddots loaded to +P (1200fps) by georgia arms.  they have a good reputation and i've always personally found it to be high quality ammo.  
           
            i carry a P-01 95% of the time.
           
            www.georgia-arms.com  
           
            they always have a booth at gun shows in my area and i get mine from them there.  the round i carry is not currently listed on the website.
           
            FWIW, this round is basically the same speed as NATO-spec ammo and the exact same weight.  this is something to consider when carrying a pistol designed around this particular load like the P-01 is.  springs and sights should be designed for the equiv. of domestic +P loads.
           
            NATO-spec ammo (and european ammo like S&B with a C.I.P. proof on the boxes) are the equivalent of domestic '+P' loads.  SAAMI has slightly lower pressure limits than the CIP for 9mm, so euro and NATO ammo are typically hotter than remchester.
