	.45 ACP - Biocrawler (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		The US Cavalry, based on testing in battle, decided that existing.38 caliber pistol cartridges appearing in the early 1900s were not adequate enough to replace the current cavalry revolver, a.45 Colt Single Action Army.
		The resulting.45 ACP cartridge is similar in performance to the.45 SandW cartridge, and thus slightly less powerful than the.45 Colt cartridge.
		Even in its full metal jacket form the.45 ACP cartridge is very effective against targets that do not wear body armour, because the large bullet has a tendency to expand when it hits bone.

	9 mm Luger - Biocrawler (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Based upon his earlier 7.65 mm Luger pistol cartridge, Georg Luger designed the 9 mm Luger cartridge at the German company Deutschen Waffen-und Munitionsfabriken (DWM) and presented a 9 mm version of his Pistole Parabellum to the British Small Arms Committee in 1902 via Vickers Limited.
		The cartridge was created simply by removing the bottleneck of the 7.65 mm Luger cartridge resulting in a straight-walled rimless cartridge.
		The 9 mm Parabellum cartridge has been manufactured by, or for, more than 70 different countries and, today, has become the world’s standard pistol cartridge, being the standard pistol caliber for NATO and the militaries of most countries of the world.

		Based upon his earlier 7.65 mm Parabellum pistol cartridge, Georg Luger designed the 9 mm Luger cartridge at the German company Deutsche Waffen und Munitionsfabriken, and presented a 9 mm version of his Luger pistol to the British Small Arms Committee in 1902 via Vickers.
		The initial cartridge was created by removing the bottleneck of the 7.65 mm Luger cartridge resulting in a tapered rimless cartridge.
		Many police departments that use 9 mm rounds in their handguns switched to this weight after the investigation of the FBI shootout in Miami in 1986, because the lighter 7.4 g (114 gr) loading used by the officers was found to be less effective than a heavier load like 124 gr.

		The resulting.45 caliber cartridge, named the.45 ACP, is similar in performance to the.45 S&W cartridge, and only slightly less powerful (but significantly shorter) than the.45 Colt cartridges the Cavalry was using.
		Another drawback for large-scale military operations is the cartridge's large size, weight and greater material costs in manufacturing compared to the 9 mm Parabellum cartridge.
		This means the cartridge is loaded to a somewhat higher maximum pressure level than SAAMI standard, generating more velocity and muzzle energy.

		It also works the opposite way with handgun cartridges that are chambered in rifles, such as the.44 Magnum.
		Some large cartridges like the Ultra Mags would barely even notice a variation of this amount but in the Hornet it is enough to go from a starting load to maximum.

		This same warning applied to other Glock handguns: the G-17, G-22 and G-31 are look-a-likes BUT are of different calibers, so is the G-20 and G-+21, or the G-26, G-27, and G-33, or the G-17L, G-24, G24C, or the G-34 and G-35, as is the G-29 and G-30.
		I was reloading only handgun calibers when I bought my Dillon 550B, but now I'm thankful that I don't have to buy another press to reload 5.56 NATO and 30-06 Springfield ammo.
		Thus, just dropping your loaded cartridge into your Glock's barrel is not enough in such situations - that tells you that you are within the maximum OAL for that cartridge, but you have to be sure that your cartridge is more than the minimum OAL for that powder/bullet combo.
