Mustang vs. Camaro?
I really don't want this thread to turn into a bashing contest. I own pistols in both calibers (Both SW99's). I have looked-up data for each caliber, what I am interested in is understanding that data (in a practical sense). I think this would be benneficial to others as well.

The above tables represent a small sampling of the research I have conducted. The tables were generated using JBM's calculator with Hodgdon load data. I pray I am giving proper reference.
I chose to post the above bullet weights based upon what I could discerne as two popular weights (perhaps readily available). I plan to expand the table research to all weights for each caliber.
What I notice is two very similar sets of data, especially where energy is concerned. So, the first question: How important is energy?
I have always had excellent results with forum members. Feel free to educate me.
Thanks.
