9mm (usually called 9mm Luger or 9mm Parabellum) almost always has a higher muzzle velocity than the 380 ACP (also called the 9mm short, 9mm Kurtz, and 9mm Corto). The two bullets are essentially the same diameter however the 9mm Parabellum is almost always a heavier bullet than the 380 ACP with a larger powder charge and a significantly higher chamber pressure.
