All the Norinco 85's I've ever shot seem to work better using the 115gr FMJ. The slightly higher velocity gives the notoriously strong recoil spring that extra punch it needs to cycle the weapon every shot. I would not try any of the JHP rounds for the Norinco's simply because they never polish the feed ramps suitably to feed JHP's effectively.Much like a stock 1911 will need the feed ramps polished to cycle JHP, most all Norincos need their feed ramps polished in order to cycle JHP's reliably.

I would go with the following in descending order: C, A, B C, first because at 7-15 yards, a heavier bullet is more important than a faster hot load such as B which might cause some problems for certain makes of pistols. If the range of engagement is longer, then I would want something that has more speed because the trajectory will be relatively flatter and so less windage and elevation adjustments. I place B last because hot loads can be a handful and does require you to practice regularly with it to shoot well and it will get quite expensive. And using it in some makes of pistols will void the warranty. A is actually good enough for most situations and if you do your part in training regularly, a 115gram hollow point well do the job.

The wight of the two rounds, a mere 9 grains. The lighter bullet will net a little more velocity. The heavier bullet, of course, will be a little slower.

On the same note, the heavier bullet may travel a little slower, but sometimes their increased mass results in a little more energy transfer, meaning they hit a little harder. Not true for ALL bulllets but it does apply to most of them out there.

Just the weight of the projectile. The 115 gr. will have a very slight increase in velocity due to lighter weight. If you are just plinking, I would get the cheapest available.

9 grains of weight; in theory the lighter grain bullet should travel just a little faster. Both are okay to use so go with least expensive.

felt recoil, none. speed stats, minimal. stopping power, minimal. Overall, the difference between the 2 bullets is very minimal especially in real situations. There will be a big difference though if you can't hit your target with either 1 of them.
