It’s easy to appreciate why Eley Minor9 is popular among members of shooting associations with minor power factor requirements. At 130, this round’s power factor is close to the allowable minimum yet it still has some wiggle room.
“Power factor,” in case you’d care to know, is the product of exactly two variables: muzzle velocity, and bullet weight (just like muzzle energy). It’s low in this case because the 124 grain projectile attains only 1,048 fps muzzle velocity (~75 fps lower than sonic speed) out of a 4” barrel. Muzzle velocity and bullet weight are half of the variables that determine free recoil energy as well, which is why you can trust this tame target ammo to give you an easier time in the recoil department.
This ammo is made in Texas with reloadable brass and steel-free bullets. Eley’s own quality assurance protocol and Sigma Six technology ensure all Minor9 cartridges' virtually perfect uniformity.
