I compared Winchester 147gr Personal Protection 9mm ammo, 1127 FPS, 415 ft lbs, (left) with some very fast 9mmSUB reloaded ammo with 80 grain Barnes hollow point bullets, 1882 FPS, 629 ft lbs, (right). Both were fired from the same Kel-Tec SUB-2000 9mm carbine. The 90 grain Hornady bullets with less powder were actually faster (2020 FPS) and had more kinetic energy (815 ft lbs) than the 80 grain version of the 9mmSUB ammo used in this test.

The camera perspective was a bit too low and too close, so it's not easy to see exactly how much more explosive the higher energy 9mmSUB ammo was, or how much farther back the 20 ounce Mt Dew bottle of water on the right flew when hit.

Kinetic energy is more important than most shooters seem to believe, especially with the newer hollow point bullet designs that expand like crazy and penetrate well if they have enough energy to do the work.

As always, shooting stuff is fun.
