Thinking about changing my carry ammo to these bad motherfuckers. My current carry ammo in my P938 is Federal HST 124 grain.

>pros
Higher raw kenetic energy by ft lbs
Still has '18 of penetration
Produces 3 seperate wound cavaties at least '8 in diameter, and 8' penetration
Higher chance of hitting a vital organ like the heart, liver, lungs, or spine; even with poor shot placement

>cons
???????

I don't think you understand how to interpret ballistic test data.

As a huge fan of Underwood, I'd say don't run it through your 938. Underwood's claim to fame is hot hot hot loadings. A 938 is a pocket pistol essentially. A large amount of powder is going to get blown out the muzzle unburnt. You're best off going with a heavy for caliber loading in a short barrel or a round designed for short barrels. Underwood just won't get even closed to advertised velocity and performance out of your gun. Also, nothing wrong with your current carry load. HST is good stuff.
>>
I am going to assume those were developed for a 4 inch barrel and probably perform like shit out of ~2" of 938 barrel. Then again, plenty of "short barrel" Ammo sucks dick, and standard ammo does good.

Go check out the ammoquest vids for good insights on short barrel 9mm loads

What was the best out of it?

.40 preforms well out of a 2" barrel, that's all I know.
>>
>>29145838
Can't be bothered to go watch them because I have a Glock 19 with 124gr HST's and carry Cor Bon in my LCP.

But the guys testing is consistent and solid.

All magnum revolver rounds are superior in every way to the most common centerfire pistol rounds

Butthurt faggot mad cuz he's a nogunz.

.357 magnum shits on any centerfire pistol rounds when it comes to velocity
>>
>>29145979
sounds like a bunch of personal problems that are faults of the gunc not the cartridge.

Granted by claiming that revolver cartridges in general are superior to auto cartridges hes clearly referring to magnums, which leaves all all the horrid anemic rounds. So MAGNUM revolver cartridges are superior only due to availability of the guns and ammo. Since 10mm, 9x23, 9x25, .45 super and .460 have been around for a while.

So both of you suck subjective dicks

So are you still gonna act like 9/40/45/ has anything against 357/44 besides capacity??
I rest my case.
>>
>>29149357
Yeah, they aren't fired out of revolvers.
>capacity doesn't matter

Lol, again, please just kill yourself

>>29148567
>on any centerfire pistol round
Are you aware that 9x25 dillon has loads that push a 115gr fmj to over 2000fps? Or .440 corbon with 210gr bullets at 1800fps?

Or 9x23 steyr, whose original factory load in fucking 1903 pushed a 110gr bullet to 1720fps?

You'd best be trollin'

Autos and revolvers both have their place, lots of people carry both under different circumstances. Stfu and gtfo

I'll shoot you twice with my s6 with 125 gr 357 mag, so I can here you struggle to say capacity again.

You wanna talk about ballistics but don't see the terminal ballistics of 357 mag to 9/40/45

My local gun shop store stopped selling these because the +p and the plastic tip means they go through an engine block before they expand in someone so they were worried about them piercing through the backstop.

If they didn't have cheap shit I wouldn't go back.
