I used to shoot a lot of 147 grain bullets out of a nine. I had a Ruger P89 with fixed sights. The 147s were the only ones that would hit point of aim with the sights. I shot IDPA, and IPSC with that load and also shot a mule deer, several coyotes, jackrabbits, and various small desert creatures. I am currently loading 147s/Power Pistol for use in my Sten MK II sub machine gun.
All that said, I don't really know what to tell you. I think I would prefer the 124s. I didn't have any real complaints with the 147s other than the fact that they arn't as readily available and everyone has to ask you about it.

You know the rest. In the books you have read
How the British Regulars fired and fled,
How the farmers gave them ball for ball,
From behind each fence and farmyard wall,
Chasing the redcoats down the lane,
Then crossing the fields to emerge again
Under the trees at the turn of the road,
And only pausing to fire and load.
