tnoutdoors9 has some very good comparison testing of popular ammo brands on water filled milk jugs, newspaper and water filled jugs, and the latter with denim, as well.
Here's the 9mm CorBon Powerball

You can see penetration, expansion, and chronograph results. Nice.

I know it. My favorite was the Gold Dot 124+P Wow, do you see that expansion? 3/4'' flower! That's what recently gave me my new found respect for the 9mm.
For years a friend convinced me it's a wussy round, so I went with .40S&W
With these Tennesseeoutdrs tests.............now I can clearly see my friend was wrong.

I would like to see comparisons of the 9mm Federal HST +P 147gn and the others. Also same with .45 HST +P 230gn. These are my carry rounds and I suspect they are bad boys but want numbers and pics.

Very informative. I sure don't want to use that stuff in my PM9. The K9 is a lot sturdier and shouldn't have a problem.
