9mm Luger Trajectory Calculator

Want to get the most out of your 9mm? We've mapped out the trajectory of a standard 124-grain load pushing 1,090 fps to show you exactly what your pistol can do. Using a practical 25-yard zero, this chart helps you understand your round's flight path whether you're training at the range or carrying for personal defense.

Every shooter's setup is different, and 9mm loads can vary quite a bit - from softer-shooting practice rounds to +P defensive ammunition. That's why we've made this calculator fully adjustable. Click the "Modify Calculation" button below to input your specific load data. You can fine-tune everything from bullet weight and velocity to environmental conditions like wind, altitude, and temperature.

Understanding your ammunition's trajectory is crucial for both competitive shooting and defensive scenarios. With this data, you'll know exactly where your rounds will impact, helping you make the most of the world's most popular defensive handgun cartridge.
