After 8weeks of weight time my tax stamp came in and i picked up my AAC Evo 9mm can for my Sig 226. I shot about a 100rnds of 115gr ammo and loved it. Although i am sure heavier slower bullets would sound even better. I know that speed of sound is about 1089ft/sec. Does that pretty much mean that i should look for ammo with velocity below this?
This pretty much leaves the 147 grain variety. I really like the Federal HST line and they have a regular and a +P 147gr. The standard pressure is advertised at 1000ft/sec and the +p is 1050 ft/sec. Am i correct to assume that both would be sound the same since they are below the sound barrier level and might as well go with the +p? All inputs appreciated.
Here are a couple of pics.
