Wow, that is a good question. The 9mm isn't generally thought of as a target round like the .22LR, .32 S&W or .32 H&R it is intended to be a defensive round. There is a company that states that they make match grade ammo: www.precisiondelta.com/I haven't tried it myself. I usually use Sellier & Bellot in my P210-6, which I don't shoot as often as I should (I have to wear a glove or the hammer will get me). The S&B is a little hotter load than the nominal loading for 9mm. See my comparisons in post: handgunforum.proboards3.com/index.cgi?board=Talks&action=display&n=1&thread=1589Which model of the P210 do you have? What distance are you shooting at where you think the White Box ammo isn't good enough? |

Well, with the longer sight radius/barrel that the 5 has over my 6, I'm sure you get more accuracy. Mine is also an old version that had fixed sights. I bought it used, but NIB.
Since you are shooting from a bench rest you have a more controlled environment, which means you can experiment more. If you could borrow a Ransom Rest, where the gun would be clamped to one position, you could really get serious doing an ammo evaluation.
If I were you, I try the match grade ammo from Precision Delta. I haven't tried it because it is more expensive and I couldn't justify it - I'm not that great a shot. I bought the P210 out of sheer lust, and the price was right. They had a price on it, but told me they could do better than its posted price. They told me what it was, and I told them it was still too much, but if it had been $100 lower than that I would have bought it. They said okay, so I became a owner of a P210, which is currently way buried in a safe underneath other guns. (Somebody needs to make a big safe especially for handguns like they do for rifles/shotguns).
