Dpris, thanks for chronographing that ammo. I saw that near 1200 FPS average, and having chronographed a fair amount of ammo in various handguns, those velocities seemed suspect to me. You saved me having to buy a box of the stuff just to satisfy my curiosity as to actual velocities.

BTW, I chronographed some Federal 124 9MM +P HST in my S&W 940 with ~2" barrel. It's performance was about what was claimed for the 38 Spcl. load at 1195 FPS average. But if believed, the 38 load would have slightly exceeded it. Just didn't seem very likely to me....
