The m1153 uses the ra9sxtc bullet, Winchester also sells it as USA9JHP3 of which i bought a 50rnd box of. Compared to the federal hi shok 147gr 9ms it has a little more kick but not bad at all. I’ve shot about 600 rounds of the m1152 loading in the Winchester sg9w box and that’s the most kick I’ve felt out of a 9mm bullet yet and it’s what I put in my handgun for hiking.
You are most welcome and thank you for watching. As they say, you can take the man out of the military, but you can't take the military out of the man. US Army 1986-1994. Were you in the service?
I agree! This was a great video and I'm glad he addressed the Hague Convention issue. When he first showed us the bullet, I immediately wondered about the hollow point issue and was glad he cleared that up.
The speed of sound changes by temperature. The air pressure over density is constant. Frequency, amplitude, wavelength have no influence on the speed of sound. If we talk ideal gas and not 100 km high near vacuum or inside a pressurized car tire.
Yes, that is correct, that is why I note speed of sound at my location. However, even with variability in the speed of sound these rounds will almost certainly remain subsonic anywhere on the planet.
When you consider that most standard pressure 147 grain ammo delivers around 1,000-ish fps from a 4 inch barrel...this stuff is pretty slow to be a +p+ round. But then, the term "military grade" don't mean what it used too.
I wonder if the failure to expand is related to the short barrel velocity. I was under the impression (possibly faulty) that the 9mm +p+ was brought about to use in the uzi and hk mp5 style weapons which have a bit more barrel length to extract more from the load.
@@ESMaddock yes, but back years ago when the +p+ was designed, supressors were available, but not in the common usage they are today. The idea was a round to make the sub-guns more reliable and more effective downrange since it was"only a 9mm"
The failure to expand was because It clogged as it passed through the jacket and leather. I heard this round was designed to be subsonic so silencers could be used more effectively by special forces
I agree. Poor choice. 147 grain loadings are usually the worst personal defense loads from what ive seen. I enjoyed the video as well. Thanks for doing this one.
@@TacticalJackalope it expands well for a subsonic but it doesn't fragment it also overpenetrates and produces low energy. It makes for an inefficient load. I disagree. Imo heavy subsonics should be avoided.
One point - the Hague Convention speaks specifically of expanding bullets. This waste of lead and copper fulfilled that requirement. Better to use a controlled fracturing bullet - it doesn't expand, but it surely makes a more devastating wound than either a FMJ or a non-expanding hollow point. BTW, a +P+ round that's slower than a standard pressure round of the same weight? Ridiculous.
I have seen other "bare" gel tests where this same bullet expanded nicely. However, our test with these soft barriers more closely mimics reality. It is disappointing that the bullet failed to expand and as result, over-penetrated. When the Hague Convention made that agreement, there was no such thing as a controlled fracturing, barrier blind bullet. I wonder what such a convention would declare today. Overall, it looks like this bullet was not a good decision by the Army. They could have chosen the 147 gr. HST or as you suggest, a barrier blind CF bullet. Thanks for watching and posting. More good stuff coming up.
A bit disappointing for not expanding. Good accuracy and velocity/energy but not a good choice for EDC or home defense. If you can get the 147 Gold Dot +p I think that is a good option. I had 115 +p in my wife's 9mm for a # of years back in the day. In 2014 I switched her to 124 +p Gold Dot for a few years then switched her and my daughters who carry 9s to HST 124 standard or +P. Thank you.
I agree. It clogged very easily and failed to expand. I am looking for the 147 gr. Gold Dot and would like to give it a test. Waiting for it to come back in stock. The 124 gr. HST is an excellent choice.
Ahhh, I believe Winchester is fibbing on the +p+ pressure,, I got a chronograph and do a little ammo testing ever now and then my self, and I’ve got more speeds out of standered pressure 147gr, from a couple of my 4 inch barrel guns, and the regular +p ammo I’ve tested I get around 1100fps, and with a couple of my 5inch barrel guns they get around the 1150fps range, give or take a few feet per second
That is interesting. This was tested using a full-sized pistol (in fact very similar to the one adopted by the military) and I agree, this does not seem like +P+. In addition, this box of ammo is considered reference ammo for the M1153 and not sub-par surplus. Thanks for watching!

I was thinking the same thing. I am not sure why it is listed as +P+
I use the 147 gr ball works great while using can

Any faster and it would be supersonic, which would defeat the purpose of using it in suppressed SMGs.

The 147gr HST is a top performer.

@@TacticalJackalope I agree, far better than this. I think the HST is quite good.
