9mm - 147 Grain JHP - Winchester Silvertip - 20 Rounds

This 9mm round from Winchester’s Silvertip line of ammunition is really easy on the eyes. If you came here looking for the prettiest pistol cartridge, you’re in luck. But its lustrous sheen isn’t the only reason you’ll benefit from this round’s 147 grain jacketed hollow point bullet. The bullet possesses a deep nose cavity, designed to translate its pounding close range energy into terminal expansion for maximum stopping power. The bullet jacket features an electroless nickel finish – hence its silver color – to reduce fouling and friction within the bore. That jacket’s profile is contoured to promote reliable feeding and streamlined for superior accuracy, and its six notches create fault lines that direct uniform expansion within soft tissue. This heavyweight bullet’s consistent charge of propellant supplies a 1,010 fps muzzle velocity. That’s well below supersonic, and accordingly a little quieter – perfect for a suppressor. Winchester’s new run brass case ought to duck in and out of any handgun’s chamber reliably, and is well worth reloading after you’ve rescued it from the floor!

45 ACP - 155 Grain RHT Frangible - Speer Lawman - 50 Rounds

Even the most cautious shooter is subject to certain dangers when they train. Shooting at steel targets and against hard backdrops presents a real risk of splash-back, where copper and lead fragments ricochet back to do serious damage. Splash-back is also a common problem at indoor ranges, where poor ventilation may also cause toxic lead to linger in a carcinogenic haze! But Speer’s Lawman line of ammunition works to make all those risks moot. This 45 ACP cartridge features Speer’s 155 grain Reduced Hazard Training projectile. The frangible bullet is comprised of 100 percent compressed copper particles, which are hardened but not fused together in a process called sintering. The RHT accordingly stays intact as it feeds and fires, but crushes itself into powder when it slaps a steel target or other hard surface. And in conjunction with this round’s heavy metal free Clean-Fire primer, the RHT poses no threat of producing airborne lead that could have accumulated indoors. This round’s lightweight bullet grants it a fast muzzle velocity, although you will find Speer’s training ammo reliably mimics many other conventional self-defense loads. Speer gives their RHT a distinctive pattern on its tip for easy identification, and complements it with a new brass case and clean burning propellant for superior functionality in a semi-auto.
