Is there a industry standard for determining muzzle velocity for a given caliber and bullet weight?
Is there any regulation and/or oversight for publshed data on ammunition?
If there is no standard, do ammo manufactuers typically inflate their velocity numbers?
How much of a velocity loss is involved in using a short barreled firearm such as a 2.75" barrel on a mouse gun?
Short barreled pistols and revolvers are seemingly becoming more popular with CCW becoming more common. I admit a total lack of knowledge on this but it would seem that a given round that might provide adequate penetration or expansion in say a 6" barrel might be marginal in a 2.75" barrel.
Thanks for your responses.
