A 147gr 9mm round ends up being sub-sonic out of a 4" barrel. I think velocities are typically quoted in the mid 900's. Does that make them any quieter without a suppressor?
I've accumulated three 9mm's now and I want to build a stash of ammunition for them. Most of the stuff I can find at local shops and ranges is either 115 or 124gr, so I haven't yet tried these out myself. Of those two though, I prefer the heavier weight because it seems to have a longer, less sharp, recoil impulse which is easier to recover from.
I'm also under the impression that the slower round will put less wear and tear on the gun.
Any advice is greatly appreciated, thank you.
