Ammo Weight

[RugerMen]

I'm shooting a P95. If I'm shooting at paper targets, what difference does ammo weight make?

I assume you mean "bullet weight." Say, a 230 grn vs a 200 grn bullet. In general, the bullet impact can be different with different weight bullets. Of course, it also depends upon the distances shot. You will notice more of an impact shift at longer distances.
Another thing will be felt recoil. Often, a heavier, slower bullet will have more "felt" recoil vs a lighter faster bullet.

None.

1) First it must go bang;

2) It must do so with controllable accuracy.

With the same point of aim different weight bullets will usually have a different point of impact. In a handgun usually the heavier bullets will hit higher because of greater recoil and muzzle flip. 8) 8)

Ammo weight makes me run slower, and my pants sag. As I get older I tend to carry a 22 as the ammo count vs ammo weight is at a much higher ratio.

Yep... :lol:

I load up the belt loops with 300 gr .45LC ammo, and my britches ride down to half mast like them rappers and gangbangers! :shock: :oops:
