Anyone who's been around for awhile and knows much about 9mm knows that 9BPLE was the hot ticket it in the 90's and was in widespread use by many agencies/departments to include the Illinois State Police who played a part in its development. They used it with great success as did the Border Patrol for a number of years.
Are you saying that you've been around since 1975 and you didn't know this already or are you simply wanting him you to bring you documentation of what is seen as common knowledge to most?
I believe he felt you were being argumentative because you question him and me yet you don't provide any reasearch to back your points either?

Can't speak to the suitability of either load, but I remember when 50rd boxes of 9BP and 9BPLE were available at Walmart for $11.97.
They were what they were, and there are better loads now. See also: Hydrashok

Here you go, Jake'sDad: https://www.m4carbine.net/archive/in...p/t-50434.html Yes, I believed this to be generally available info.
I believe it would be interesting to compare a good loading from "then" to a good loading "now." Had I simply asked for the data with no context, most of the replies would have been suggestions to use the 124 gr HST instead, as no one would know the basis for my question.
So, is/are there gelatin test figures for the 9BP standard, and 9BP+p? Wahoo's provided the +p+; 9BPLE's fine for the latter.

They did some testing of the 9BP in this article if that helps any:

Jake'sDad....I'm thinking some of us may have confused the "tone" of your Who and Why question. You know the internet has a funny habit of doing that to people.

Other than DocGR's statement of "The 124 gr HST is a better load than the 115 gr 9BP", what data are you trying to reference from that link?
The data wahoo provided was from stoppingpower.net, Evan Marshal's site. Use the search function here and decide how much you may wish to rely on it.
Wahoo95, Yes, thanks - I'd read the article and missed the reference to bare gelatin. Expecting a table format, I guess...
