For short barreled 9mm guns like the Glock 26 (w/ 3.5" barrel), are the recommended loads from the duty load thread still good-to-go?
The 9 mm loads are generally tested in a 4" barrel; a half-inch shorter barrel is not going to change things...

Thanks Doc.
Notice which load looses the smallest percentage of velocity when going to a Kahr MK9 with a 3" barrel from a SIG P229 with a 3.8" barrel.

Yeah, I had an idea that loads that lighter and faster would have more of a percentage of velocity loss than the heavier loads, but I wasn't sure if it was noticeable in terms of terminal performance. Luckily, I tend to favor heavier loads anyway... Thanks again guys.
