I know this is not 100% fair since I used Supersonic in the 5.7x28 and subsonic in the 9mm, but still fun to see the guesses.

Equipment used:

Glock 34 with Rugged Obsidian 9 short and long Configuration, and CGS Mod 9Sk

PSA Rock with OSS / HukWrx Rad 22

Meter: My Ears...

so "9mm short" means 9x19 mm or 9mm parabellum, but using a short version of your suppressor? I would have assumed that "9 mm short" meant 380 ACP which is known as 9 mm short in many other parts of the world / other languages.
Yes 9x19mm, used the same ammo for all 9mm just the short version of the can. I can see where that can be confusing.
 
Where you find that ammo?

9mm long, 5.7x28, 9mm Short​


Was the Correct answer!

There was a very obvious difference in sound with the three.

I just received some 62gr Subsonic 5.7x28, and I am going to redo the test in the future.

Thanks to everyone that voted.
 
One of my Distributors has 116 boxes in stock, do you want me to get them all for you???

No seriously, I can't efficiently order a couple boxes by themselves because of shipping, but I can put some on the order next time I order from them if your not in a hurry? There $49.00 for 50 rounds.
