i read those lucky gunner results different. It seems as though several 230 grain JHP (Federal HST's and Winchester SXT) performed very well out of short barrels. Velocity, penetration and expansion was right up there, IMO and IMO ONLY, the 45 is a more effective round than the 9mm again IMO ONLY.
I wanna make that clear before the 9mm fan boys turn this into a caliber war thread.
