Winchester Target & Training 9mm NATO

A: Hi Mitchell and welcome. Muzzle Velocity: 1140 fps and Muzzle Energy: 360 ft-lbs. Cheers and stay safe!

A: Hi Mitchell, muzzle velocity is 1140 fps and muzzle energy is 360 ft lbs Stay safe & have a great day!

A: Hi Keith and welcome. NATO is generally loader to a higher pressure that standard 9mm Luger ammunition. Generally about 50 to 75fps faster given the same bullet weight. Cheers and stay safe!

A: Hi Keith, the difference is pressure. 9mm NATO rounds have higher pressures than standard 9mm Luger rounds. To make a comparison, a 9mm NATO round would be like a 9mm +P round in terms of pressure. That's the biggest difference. 9mm NATO is a bit spicier than 9mm Luger. It's accurate and reliable, but it's definitely snappier because it's designed to hit 1250+ feet per second out of a standard pistol. Most commercial 9mm ammo is going around 1100 feet per second with a 115 grain bullet. Stay safe & have a great day!

A: Hi Paul, "The ammo industry uses something called SAAMI Standards to establish the pressures that ammo should be loaded to. The SAAMI pressure for 9mm Luger ammo is around 35,000 PSI, and C.I.P (think European SAAMI) rates 9mm Luger ammo at 34,080 PSI. According to documentation, the 9mm NATO rounds are pressured at 36,500 PSI (again according to CIP). That means that when compared to standard 9mm ammo, the 9mm NATO ammo is running a higher pressure, analogous to a 9mm +P load, which SAAMI rates around 36,000 PSI." Stay safe & have a great day!
