G34 vs. Kahr PM9 chrono data---also Bluedot vs Powerpistol

This is some chrono data from when I got my PM9 last year. I wanted to see how fast I could get a 147 out of the little barrel. I tested the G34 with the same loads at the same time.

3" vs. 5.3" barrel

new Remington brass with Remington primers

factory Winchester Ranger RA9T 147gr jhp
PM9 902 884 912 900
G34 1041 1002 1059 1032 1025

Golden Saber 147 jhp 6.0 BlueDot
PM9 816 774 851 806 786

Golden Saber 147 jhp 6.4 BlueDot
PM9 905 894 932
G34 1077 1036 1057

Golden Saber 147 jhp 5.8 PowerPistol
PM9 978 995 987
G34 1141 1172 1156 1163 1147

I think the last two loads are a tiny bit over published max, so dont use those loads. I used a caliper on the base of the brass though and it was sized the same as the weaker loads.

Powerpistol has it all over the Bluedot for the 147.
