The velocity loss would most likely be less with 147 grain ammo, which seems to be catching on lately. The Mil Pro should shoot 147 OK if it will feed. Read page three here for one guy's take on a three inch barrel semi auto and 9BPLE ammo.

Re: Taurus Slim
The Slim appears to be a singe stack version of the 9mm Taurus Millenium Pro with a DOA trigger. Good little pistol, highly reliable. But the second generation MilPro I have will only take ammo up to the following spec: 124 grain @ 1225 FPS, 413 ft-lbs ME. That rules out the 115 grain Illinois State Police +P+ load at 1300 FPS, 431 ME , going by the energy factor. Unless Taurus has upped the specs of the gun, figure out what you want ol' Slim to be good for first.
