Did a couple of tests with the BB Outdoorsman .45 acp +P in my Kahr P45 and my Glock 21C with a stormlake barrel.
255 grain flatnose keith hardcast
Glock got consistent 921 fps for 480 foot pounds ME
Kahr p45 got only 892, 907 and 850 for around 435 foot pounds ME
Glock ate them up, but the Kahr has a tighter chamber, and some were too tight so had to plunk test the whole box and got 10 that would fit.
In the Kahr, one round had a problem going in, but released the slide to get it home and it fired fine.
If the purpose for woods carry is penetration, I will get some of the Lehigh Penetrators to try out also. They might feed better in the Kahr than the BB hardcast. The +P factor was not a biggy in either gun.
