I carry WWB 230gr. JHP's in my Glock 30 and they get 880 fps out of that short barrel. That's a little longer barrel, 3.78".

They expand okay, but I still wouldn't take a chance that they wouldn't overpenetrate.

You'd have to chrono a few loads out of your gun to see how much the velocity actually drops with your barrel.
