Does anyone have any useful info or links out there showing that the 147 grain HST reliably expand out of a 3 inch barrel? I've chronoed them at 937 fps average out of my XD9 Subcompact and wonder if that is enough speed to effectively expand. What is the bullet constructions velocity threshold?
This load is my carry load for my G26 and I'm impressed with the info I've been able to find regarding the 147 grain HST at 1000 fps which is what they do out of my G26. But it leaves the question is 930-940 fps "enough"? Any help is appreciated.
