Liberty Civil Defense 9mm +P with Prodigy 4.25"?

I do carry these on almost all my pistols (SIG M18, SIG 226 and M&P 2.0) and have trained with that and have never had any issue (besides one RDS set of screws shearing off, but that's another topic :) ). These weight practically nothing, which is great for carrying multiple 20 round mags without having to pull up your pants every 5 steps... I am aware the Civil Defense rounds punch holes through IIIA armor, so not necessarily the best all-around defense, but with proper shot placement, this can't be that bad as a standard defense round...

Now, I just got a Prodigy 4.25" and it's already my favorite for EDC, but I'm unclear if it is a good idea to use +P in such a fine-tuned piece of equipment. My guess is if the M&P, although a nice one (Precision Center Ported Barrel) is OK with it per Smith & Wesson, then it should be fine...

What's everyone carrying in their fine Prodigy? I've got norma JPH, NXD and MHP (big fan of norma's), SIG M17 +P and SIG JHP to choose from apart from the Liberty ones...
 
Sorry, I miscommunicated, I meant

I carry what real armed pros carry.

147gr HST or Ranger-T.

Ditch the gimmick rounds.

Roger that, appreciate the answer. Gimmick rounds will go to the range :)

The HST seems to run in everything, even my JHP sensitive Prodigy.

OK, that is good to know! My Prodigy is also of the sensitive kind, so far it seems to like norma NXD best, MHP OK and pukes on Blazer and other 124gr mid-range cartridges, and somehow the SIG V-crown are a no-go. Thanks again to you both for the tip! Now where would one reliably (forget about affordably) procure these?

Yeah, mine does not like Sig V-Crown at all.
 
One question remains: is +P more damaging to a tight tolerance weapon like the Prodigy? Actually two: what's a reputable source for HST? Seems to be out of stock at all of the usual outfits I typically use...
