I just tried some geco 115 gr and am impressed with the accuracy.
Its advertised as ipsc minor, but havent chronoed it yet, so not sure how consistent or “into” the minor power factor it is.
I would not hesitate to use it for locals.

Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by the President... - Theodore Roosevelt, Lincoln and Free Speech, Metropolitan Magazine, Volume 47, Number 6, May 1918.
Every Communist must grasp the truth. Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun. Our principle is that the Party commands the gun, and the gun must never be allowed to command the Party Mao Zedong, 6 November, 1938 - speech to the Communist Patry of China's sixth Central Committee
Honestly for the cost and fact it’s only for competition, just reload your own. You can pick up a Lee Classic Turret and it’s a great beginner press is sort of an in between a single stage and progressive.
I’m using a polymer coated bullet because
1. they’re cheaper
2. since the coating isn’t as thick as a plated bullet, they allow for less powder to achieve desired velocity
With that and years of shooting matches I have a 147gr 9mm round that uses quality powder and Federal primers (softest/reliable) for about .12-.17/round. It’s ridiculously soft shooting and without exaggeration it has same perceived recoil as a .22 pistol out of my 1911.
I’ve shot Atlanta Arms, Speer, Federal, Winchester, etc. and NOTHING comes close to hand loads tuned to your firearm in terms of cost and felt recoil/snappiness.
They are not the softest shooting, but bulk ammo can be had for $.16/rd right now... all comes down to how much free time you have. I quit reloading for the time being and am saving brass. If ammo goes back up or becomes less available (election panic?) i’ll dust it off. Definately good to have the option.

Disclosure: I am affiliated PRN with a tactical training center, but I speak only for myself. I have no idea what we sell, other than CLP and training. I receive no income from sale of hard goods.
Im shooting a match tonight and I tried some of the low velocity / recoil ammo at the range the other day. It definitely felt better, but I dont know if I'm good enough for such a small gain will make much difference to me. There is a lot of other shit I need to work on.
Range report to follow.
