No but I can tell you this, the Win. Ranger (#RA9TA) 127 gr. +P+ loading only does 1117.4 fps out of the little 3.1" Kahr bbl.
I'm sure this is due to not all of the powder buring before the bullet exits the bbl.
I have chronographed this loading out of a SIG P226 4" bbl. and have gotten on average, 1189.1 fps for a 10 rd. avg.
From what I've read, Speer used powder in the SB load that would give the best velocity in the short barrel guns.
Another good load out of my PM9 is the Win. 147 gr. JHP Bonded (PDX1) Personal Protection load. I've not yet run these over my chrono. I'm also not sure how this load will expand out of a short barrel.
