M193 vs 9mm JHP cost vs effectiveness, other factors...
Given the volatility of the ammo market and related prices I got to thinking...
M193 is expensive, 9mm JHP is also expensive, so which one is more "cost effective"?
Where I'm at the cost of M193 vs 9mm JHP is almost the same right now.
I have guns and ammo for both already. However, in this current market if I want to buy more and I'm not made of endless bags of money (I'm "low income" but have zero debt and few bills so it's ok-ish), where should I focus?
9mm has the benefit that it fits in a conventionally holster-able pistol which can be concealed. It is also less loud.
By contrast, as far as I can tell, in most other ways the M193 wins hands down.
Therefore I think I should focus on picking up some more M193 even if that means I cannot also pick up 9mm JHP.
Any ideas, thoughts, opinions, or suggestions as to why that might not be the case?
Thanks.

Nice. Save those for a shtf situation.
And whenever you can (depending on price) look for 200-300 rounds of both 9mm ball and 5.56/223 for practice.
