Every time I go to the range and shoot my 9mm, I start asking the same question. The brass just looks so small next to the .40s and .45s laying on the floor. Then I look at this pic:
Marshall said:To me, the bottom four look much better than the top two.
StrikeEagle said:The top two, the 9mm cavities look really scrawny to me in comparison.
I may be alone on this, but I find the 9mm to have too much muzzle flip. Lighter recoil, yes, but just too flippy for me. It ended up being kind of distracting. I prefered the 'push' of the .40.
