You need a power factor of 150 to make minor in rifle.

Probably isn't going to happen given the big difference in barrel lengths. Only real way to find out is to shoot some rounds out of both guns over a chrono.

You could try using lighter bullets for the handgun and heavier for the rifle.

For instance 115 for the handgun and 124 for the rifle but with the same load off powder.

Do they chrono at the fun runs? I wouldn't worry about a few pf points at a fun run.

If you're looking to have fun, then talk the local USPSA club into recognizing Pistol Caliber Carbine. Just run the 9mm AR in handgun matches.

No PF problems (You'll have no problems making Minor, all you need)and maximum fun.

If you have a 16" barrel on your 9mm, you'd be surprised at how many 9mm loads make Rifle Minor. 150 PF? Not a problem.
