I also carry the P-11 Kel-Tec 9mm, yes it's got a ridiculously long & heavy trigger pull that contributes to a loss of accuracy, however it isn't a target pistol, and I'm not trying to make it be one. I can maintain reasonable (about a 2" group) within 7 yards. Anything further than that in a self defense situation I'm not going to be shooting, I'm gonna be going for cover.
My advice as far as ammunition goes, ask your local police department exactly what ammuniton they issue their officers. Purchase a box of tha ammunition, test in your gun, if it functions then that is what you carry. I was advised to do this by the instructor of my concealed weapons permit class. The reason he reccomends doing it this way is simple. If you have to shoot someone (and I hope you never do), and you end up being sued, when questioned about your ammo choice (and you will be), your answer will be "Thats what the local police carry, I figure if it's good enough for them, it's good enough for me".
