380 Auto - 80 Grain SCHP - NovX Pentagon - 20 Rounds

Looking for 380 Auto (aka 380 ACP, or just 380) self-defense ammunition? It’s hard to go wrong when you load NovX Pentagon ammo in your carry pistol’s magazine. This cartridge puts all of the 380 Auto’s admittedly limited energy to work so you can stay safe out there! This cartridge is outfitted with a solid copper hollow point projectile. The lead-free bullet keeps a barrel clean and generates relatively little recoil, both of which offer an accuracy advantage out in the field. So lightweight a bullet also receives a boosted muzzle velocity, which appreciably flattens out its trajectory. The hollow point bullet begins expanding as soon as it meets soft tissue, erecting multiple petals in the process that can effectively double the bullet’s original diameter. NovX ammunition has steel cases, but they’re not like the ones you’d find on inexpensive Russian cartridges. These rounds’ stainless steel cases are lighter and stronger than brass, and also limit expansion during ignition so as to transfer more energy to the projectile. This promotes a faster muzzle velocity, flatter trajectory, and more energy delivery on impact.

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.
