    Velocity isnt what makes the plating come off. It is too much crimp.

    First thing to go with too much crimp is accuracy. Then they start to do other stuff, none of it good.

    If you just load them to normal levels and not +P+ you will be fine.

    Sort of off topic but what 115gr off the shelf (win, fed, tula) 9mm range ammo seems to work best with your sub gun? I just built a 9mm ar pistol with a 7" barrel.

    Any ammo will work, you're running semi, not select / full auto. All you have is a longer hand gun. I run any and everything [except soft lead]through my 10" sbr 9.

    Meh. Even if you load it hot, you'll just maybe munge up your can, and that can be rebuilt or replaced. The Uzi itself will be fine and Uzi barrels are cheap and plentiful.

    I loaded some 110 gn fmg very light as a test for my semi auto 16" vector uzi. and for girls to shoot. My plan was to see how cheap I could go before went looking for a threaded barrel. They come out at 700 fps and even less in a glock 17 pistol. I was surprised that I had no issues. Isn't everything in an M11 subsonic? Never chrono'd but I'd think even +p whould be just based on design. I've only loaded a few thousand plated bullets and had good luck with 9mm, so so with the 45 ACP. The ACP problem was a bullet profile that didn't work in my 1911 but was fin in everything else.
