Does anyone know what barrel length would yield maximum velocity with a 9mm? Obviously, this would depend on the bullet and powder used, but perhaps a ballpark range? For instance, what barrel length maximizes velocity out of WWB? 147gr SXTs?
I understand the 9mm isn't helped much by longer barrels, but where does it drop off? Does a 10" barrel give a significant boost over a 5" barrel? Does 7.5"? Anyone have chrony data for a 9mm out of a carbine and a pistol?
