Never let anyone else define you. Don't be a jerk just to be a jerk, but if you are expressing your true inner feelings and beliefs, or at least trying to express that inner child, and everyone gets pissed off about it, never NEVER apologize for it. Let them think what they want, let them define you in their narrow little minds while they suppress every last piece of them just to keep a friend that never liked them for themselves in the first place.
So he has to not only catch up with the missiles, but the shield has enough force to then tear through it, AND still have enough momentum to come back to his arm.
Originally, the scene was meant to be a part of Astonishing Captain America series in 2011 (as shown in the official issue preview). But the comic never got released:
Cap vs. Ultimate Cap threads aren't a new thing, yeah. There have been dozens of them.
Ultimate Cap's only real advantage is consistency, but same thing can be said about any character who has far less appearances that the other character.
616 Cap has been a part of the mainstream MU since 1941.
But the missile feat is better, as it's more of a pure strength feat.
When Cap's shield slices through tanks or trucks, it's only partially because of his strength --- the nature of the very shield itself being super-metal allows it to damage almost anything with ridiculous ease (comic book logic).
Example: Crossbones hits Cap's hand to let him go of the shield --- said shield gets embedded in the brick wall:
Anyway, Wing is more than welcome to try to argue how Ultimate Cap is superior physically.
In a way, he's not wrong, as 616 Cap fluctuated a lot through different eras --- some writers wanted him to be a powerless peak human, some wrote him as a legit meta, some (Brubaker) managed to retcon the meaning of SSS peak human... and some were undecided.
While the Ultimate Cap was meant to be a legit meta from his first appearance to his last one.
There's more but its no contest. The strength difference is HUGE. Durability as well and I think Ultimate Cap fights good enough to make these huge advantages mean something.

I bet there was some chuckling in the office when he came up with that name.
