The Hi-Shok bullet is designed to fragment, with a portion of the base of the bullet staying together and penetrating. The XM9001 does around 1240 fps, and it's big brother, the +p+ 9BPLE does around 1280, gun dependent of course.
The 9BPLE has a stellar record, and the FBI kept shooting data on file for years. The 9BPLE had a 91% one shot stop on the FBI list, and was the best performing 9mm cartridge. One of the Atlanta counties still issues it, I believe. If you are looking for a bullet that is bonded, stays together and expands, then the XM9001 is not it. If you are looking for a big wound channel and a bullet that fragments tremendously, it will serve that purpose. |

While it doesn't met FBI specs... it will mess with the target...but lack good penetration
BUT... there are far better choices out there now a days. BTW... 16" Colt pattern carbine velocities....Federal, 115gr JHP, XM9001.......................1532fps .... perfect feeding. At those speeds, I would consider the XM 9001 a heck of a varmint round !

It's a great stash load. If that's what you have I would use it. It's a very accurate load. It does much better in duty sized guns vs subcompact
