Transcript

Today, I'd like to talk about American Eagle subsonic 9mm ammunition. This is loaded with over 147 grain, full metal jacket, flat-point bullets made by the Federal Cartridge Company in Anoka, Minnesota. Federal is part of the ATK family of companies. Federal makes a lot of ammunition for both law enforcement and military applications, and though this is commercial ammo, it's held to the same high standards.

This ammo was made to be subsonic, which means that it travels for the speed of sound. To test this, I put this through a suppressed pistol. With a suppressor, it's very simple to tell what's subsonic and what's not because you can hear the supersonic crack if it breaks the sound barrier. This being said, this ammunition was some of the quietest I've ever fired in my pistol. As another test of its velocity, I chronographed this in both 4 and 5-inch barrel pistols.

Throughout the test, I noticed that this ammo was very clean and didn't leave behind much residue. This is important with any ammunition, but using a suppressor makes this much more noticeable. The suppressed firemen that I tried this with was a CZ SP-01, though I tried it unsuppressed, as well. The other firearms were a Glock 19, a Ruger LC-9, a Ruger SR-9, a Kimber 1911, and a Browning Hi-Power. Not only were there not any issues with reliability, but it was also very easy to shoot and extremely accurate.

If you carry 147 grain hollow-points, buying this ammunition provides another benefit in that will recoil and perform very similarly, and practicing for defense will be much more effective. I think that this ammo was a great choice for those who need reliable 147 grain 9mm load, or for those who carry 147s and want to practice for defense. It's also a great choice for general shooting because of the accuracy and low recoil of the 147 grain bullet.

I use this in my suppressed CZ Scorpion with the 7.72" barrel, and it functions very well. I probably have 600 rounds or so through the gun with no malfunctions. Also worked well in my suppressed Sig P226 for the 130 rounds or so I put through it.

Had to come write a review because in addition to working flawlessly and such, the flat nose of the projectiles produce remarkably nice looking holes on a target; almost like a wadcutter would. Pleasant surprise for a great product!

Pefect for my Beretta Nano
- Quality:
- Performance:
- Value:
by The Commish on 7/27/2017
Received my 1,000 rd purchase on Wed & went to the range on Thur. Made this purchase to use with my Beretta Nano that I bought new at a FL gun show 3 wks ago. The reviews on the Nano indicate many FTE problems when the pistol was intoduced. The problem seemed to be caused by using 115 gr ammo. The suggestion was made by many shooters to use 124 gr or heavier bullets to break the gun in since it was designed to be a 40 cal pistol. Unfortunately it was only produced in 9mm. After shooting several hundred rds the past 2 wks I tried the American Eagle 147 gr rds. I can't believe the difference & inprovement I saw. The recoil seemed less & the accuracy was better. I also tried these rds in my Springfield XDM-9 with an even better grouping accuracy. Overall these bullets are great for my pistols. The price from Lucky Gunner was terrific, just slightly more than Remington 115's & the Winchester Nato 124's that I had been using. If LG can maintain or lower the price I will definitely be back to order more in the future.

by Tallen on 5/22/2016
I selected this round to be a cheaper practice round in lieu of more expensive hollow points. I used LuckyGunner's ballistic gelatin test to select an affordable 9mm HD round with good expansion. Between 147gn Rem Golden Saber and 115gn Speer Gold Dot, they both grouped well at 7yds. The Golden Saber grouped slightly better for me so I chose Federal AE 147gn within 10 fps as an equivalent practice and target round. It's performed well in that role.

No complaints on my recent purchase of 9mm - 147 gr FMJ FN - Federal American Eagle. I usually buy the cheap stuff (115 gr) but couldn't pass up the deal on a 147 gr. This was my first time shooting anything other than 115 gr in both my Glock 17 and 43 and I can say the heavier gr shoots better; a fun experiment for me. I'm partial to Federal/ American Eagle due to their support of the gun community and I'll definitely be placing many more orders with Lucky Gunner. Great YouTube vids by the way LG crew! If you haven't already, check out their channel - good stuff.

Same boat, I run gold dot for home protection but this is great training ammo. I only encountered one stove pipe in a Glock 19 due to the user having a weak grip, not due to failure of ammo. I would recommend this to anyone.

I have shot several brands of 9mm ammo at various weights, and I think that this ammo is awesome for competition shooting if you don't have a re-loader.

I can't recall ever having a jam or a misfire that was due to the ammo itself.
i have shot nearly 12000 rounds through my Springfield XDM and the American Eagle ammo is by far the cleanest, and best priced ammo i have shot with it.

Q: How do these sounded suppressed? Do they stay subsonic?

Posted On: 10/24/2022 By: Thomas Drake

A: Thanks for reaching out Thomas! A suppressor does increase a cartridge's muzzle velocity, but that increase is typically negligible. This round's 1,000 fps muzzle velocity (4" test barrel) will certainly not increase to supersonic (~1,125 fps) in conjunction with a suppressor. To that end you can expect this ammo to complement your suppressor's performance quite nicely, emitting a far softer, crack-free report on ignition. I expect you will be quite satisfied, although I must say that Federal's Syntech Action Pistol series ammo is outstanding for how clean keeps a suppressor's baffles: luckygunner.com/9mm-150-grain-total-synthetic-jacket-tsj-federal-american-eagle-syntech-500-rounds

Q: Anyone try this out a pc-9?

Posted On: 4/29/2022 By: Ghost

A: Thanks for reaching out Ghost! There's zero reason why Federal's basic range ammo shouldn't function correctly in a PC Carbine. You can see old Hickock45 firing a bunch of American Eagle through his PC right here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sJfIiunSwmk&ab_channel=hickok45

Q: Has anyone run this ammo through a 16” AR-9 style carbine. Does it stay subsonic. Thanks

Posted On: 5/30/2019 By: Carl Wimmer

A: Carl, according to the manufacturer, this will stay subsonic out of a 16" carbine.
