You're getting a little low on time for working up a new load...

Frankly, I'd say to stick with your PMC S.P.
What load is it? Have you chrono'd it? Are you good with it?

Number one issue is shot placement. Number two is energy transfer and wound channel. If your bullet is travelling fast enough, you'll get the expansion you need, and mucho penetration. In a pistol, penetration is a good thing when hunting, to me.

Are there no gun shops in your area from whom to buy or order through?
