9mm - +P 124 Grain JHP - Winchester USA Ready Defense - 20 Rounds
Winchester’s USA Ready Defense ammunition is top notch stuff! You could use this 9mm +P ammo for match shooting if you so please, although its accuracy and reliability make it a flawless solution for self-defense with a handgun or carbine. This round has a middleweight 124 grain jacketed hollow point projectile, with a notched rim to promote more reliable and uniform terminal expansion. The bullet’s nose cavity features Winchester’s Hex-Vent – a rigid polymer column that prevents the hollow point from clogging with fabric and other debris that could impact its ability to expand on cue. As the JHP penetrates, the Hex-Vent presses inward to force the bullet open, even at lower velocities. But this round certainly has got velocity working on its side. It’s a 9mm +P round, so its bullet exits the barrel faster than usual to follow a flatter trajectory and strike its target with greater energy. A 9mm +P round is loaded to a higher pressure that most modern pistols are designed to safely handle. All Glocks are rated for 9mm +P, for example. This cartridge has excellent supporting components including a match grade primer. We love to see a self-defense round equipped with a nickel-plated brass case, as that exterior plating helps to reduce friction which could cause a failure to extract and also wards off corrosion. Winchester publishes the specific ballistic data for every lot of USA Ready Defense on their website at winchester.com/usareadyinfo.com.
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.
