9mm rounds can go into the 1,350fps range for +P loads. 9mm FMJ rounds are about 1,000fps. If you move into the .454 Casull rounds, its closer to 2,000fps. FN Five-Seven pistols are about 2,800fps at the muzzle

Internal damage is more tied to round type than muzzle velocity. FMJ rounds create small wound channels and are not typically legal to hunt with (furbearers are the exception I believe). They will bounce around more if they hit bone though. Usually you hunt with soft point/frangible rounds so you don't get over-penetration and nothing to bounce around and ruin meat.
I know nothing about guns and never want to, but if you need Corsi and Fenwick
Like stats to make your point your not helping the cause.
Only soldiers need weapons of war,not John.Q.Public. If you want to try them on a range that's fine but you don't need one for every day possession.
