List of Hotter non Plus P loads

This is mainly about 9mm & .45ACP, but can include other calibers.

I know that S&B, American Eagle, and Fiocchi have load pressures close to NATO standards compared to SAAMI standards. NATO standard pressures give a little hotter performance.

So, any other brands that are close or equal to NATO pressure standards come to mind?

Again.....not about +P loadings.

Thanks
 
I dunno.

Fiocchi 115FMJ is SUPPOSED (I ain't checked) to be 1250 FPS.

In my opinion, it is probably +P even though it isn't marked as such...Just me though.
 
You listed S&B. I bought a box a while back and was really surprised how much more it kicked compared to WWB and Blazer. Couldn't tell you the FPS though.

Here is the web site.

They give energy in joules so you will to convert. Just one example: They have 115g 9mm Luger FMJ at 420 ft. lbs. They also have 124g FMJ 9mm Luger at 380 ft. lbs.

Yes, I can tell the difference in pop when I shoot .45ACP & 9mm compared to normal velocity stuff. Just to compare. Normal .45ACP 230g is around the 345 ft. lb. mark....the S&B is 371 ft. lbs.
