Sorry I screwed-up your first name, but these things just happen sometimes.
The figures I quoted above are not the muzzle energy of the bullets, but rather, their velocity.
I'm very sorry, but I don't agree with you, as NATO spec. ammo will peen the heck out of the back of your breach block, whereas, proper spec. ammo, will not. Obviously, the breach block is moving much faster with the NATO spec. ammo and with much more rearward force.
Given the same weight bullet, as you add more velocity to the bullet, the momentum of that bullet increases accordingly.
