M11/9 and Subgun/Carbine Ammo

I have been told the M11/9 will handle the high velocity subgun and carbine ammo with no problem. Is that true? I'd like to use it in my M11/9 with 10" barrel if so. Also, how much difference in velocity would this produce, particularly with the 10" barrel?

To err is human, to moo is bovine.

  This really does not answer your question but, I used the Winchester 9mm from Walmart available in 100rd boxes for $10.97
  
  It works great in my SWD M-11 and the old MAC-10.
  
  I had the M-11 out today. I fired about 500 rounds in short order without a single jam.
  
  That ammo seems plenty powerful....enough to cycle my M-11 and my Mac-10. The Mac 10 has a heavy bolt and it pretty stiff...but that Winhester still cycles it perfectly. PMC and American Eagle ammo is not hot enough for the Mac 10.
  
  I probably put a good 2500 rounds of that Winchester 9mm through the M-11...I love it.

  I use the Winchester ammo in my M-11 and it loves it too. Also the cheap Wolf and S&B milspec type stuff works good too. I would stay away from +P ammo for the Mac. The chamber walls are pretty thin. If you are having cycling problems, try 124gr FMJ's
