Greetings, sir. There is no "silver" or "magic" bullet. Placement is everything. However, some loads are better than others.
In 9mm, I favor the faster rounds over the heavier, slower rounds. In frontal shootings without intermediate targets (including arms)
the Glaser is said to perform well. However, the Cor*Bon 115 gr +P JHP is said to be around 91% effective, according to Marshall & Sanow if that's of importance to you. In shooting varmints, I have found that the faster, expanding bullets are more effective.
While it's not recommended, and certainly not by me, I cleanly killed 3 Texas whitetail deer with a 9mm using a handloaded near-equivalent of the Cor*Bon 115 gr load.
I think that in the really frangible stuff, I'd prefer Triton's 115 gr QuikShok, a fast bullet designed to penetrate approx 1.5" before breaking into three roughly equal pieces and penetrating in an ever-widening cone shaped area with 3 wound tracks. I think, but could be wrong, that the Glaser Silver penetrates a max of 6 - 8" while this does about 10 to 10.5". Hope this is of use.
My bedside pistol (HK P7) is loaded with QuikShok. best.
