Thanks PA USPSA,

This is very informative.

You're welcome.  I plan on testing additional ammo as money and time permits.  For an ammo that I haven't tested before, the test will consist of plunking at least 10 rounds, chronographing 10 rounds, shooting 5 rounds freehand at 5 yards, and general impression of the ammo.  After shooting at least 50 rounds I'll report if I had any malfunctions.

There's a lot of competition ammo out there, so I think I'll be able to do this for a while.  I'll start testing the ammo that I can get in 50 round boxes and then work up to ammo that is sold in higher quantities.  Stay tuned.

I ordered 100 rounds of NC Shooters Supply 9mm 125 grain Minor Power Factor ammunition ( https://ncshooters.com/product/100ct-9mm-125gr-minor-power-factor/ ).  The website claims an OAL of 1.110 inches and 1040 fps out of a 5 inch barrel.  It also says the ammunition is based around CZ chambers.  1040 fps with a 125 grain bullet is a power factor of 130.  My Accushadow 2 has a 4.89 inch barrel, so it is a little shorter.  The minimum fps to make power factor would be 1000.  We'll see how it does out of my Accushadow 2.

I chronographed the NC Shooters Supply 9mm 125 grain Minor Power Factor ammunition.  I shot 10 rounds using my 2022 CZ Accushadow 2 (4.89 inch barrel).  The low, average, and high in fps were:

1029.4          1049.3          1067.9

The low, average, and high power factors were:

128               131               133
