9x19mm Parabellum is by far the most popular handgun cartridge for self-defense in the world.\u00a0With advancements in technology since its introduction at the turn of the 20th century, the 9mm is able to deliver similar terminal performance to rounds with heavier bullets such as the 45 ACP and 40 S&W. The 9mm\u2019s lower cost and recoil make it an even more attractive solution for effective self-defense. But what can you expect when it comes to 9mm ballistics – velocity, energy, etc.?<\/p>\n

Factory loaded rounds are most commonly available with 115, 124, or 147 grain projectiles. As the most popular handgun cartridge, 9mm ammo is available<\/a> with every conceivable type of projectile including frangible, shot, rubber, and blank.<\/p>\n
