If anyone has some solid testing info on various 9mm out of a carbine please point it out...
Skimmed this thread -then had a question, given the rise in popularity of pistol cartridge carbines... Is there a round in either 9mm or 40 cal that folks prefer for carbine length barrels? Would love to hear what folks that use the carbines are using -particularly for defensive purposes...
All my 9mm is loaded to 1150 fps and I shoot it in both carbines and all my pistols.
I believe case capacity is the limiting factor in 9mm powder choice. Because case capacity is so low, a relatively fast powder is often the only choice that makes sense. I have had good results loading Promo in 9mm for my Hi-Point carbine. The case is loaded pretty full. Velocity tops 1400fps. 95gr plated bullet. Not a wimpy load for a 9mm carbine.
