What's the difference in FPS between a Glock firing a 115gr fmj and firing the same round in a carbine like the Beretta?

What does that actually translate to in terms of distance/power/etc.??

Thanks!

So really with a MUCH bigger carbine, you are only gaining another 200 or so FPS. Right?

In terms of performance/power/penetration...is it really even that significant?

Thanks!

No, but your a getting a MUCH longer sight distance and a stock. The accuracy advantage is FAR more practical if the range increases a little than any velocity improvement.
