Thank you Mackay S. for your learned observations. My .40 S&W HK USPc is my year-long carry. Hot/cold, it just rides in my El Paso Saddlery OWB holster. My life is worth the very slight discomfort of even that small rig. I can't endorse Lost River 170-gr +P load for the .40 enough, just buy some and try it. Optimized ammunition, even from a boutique mfg, is a godsend in our country. We've got it good here.
