9mm - 115 Grain XPB - Barnes VOR-TX - 20 Rounds
The traditional JHP bullet is extremely effective for self-defense, but it does have a major design flaw. If its core and jacket separate from one another, it can lose the momentum it needs to penetrate a threat deeply enough to neutralize it. Barnes developed the XPB bullet to fix that problem. This 9mm round’s 115 grain projectile is made completely out of copper. It hasn’t got a core or a jacket, and is therefore incapable of exhibiting core/jacket separation. The copper the XPB is made of is also super tough, so it will retain pretty much all of its weight even if it has to pass through a barrier like insulated clothing or multiple sheets of drywall. The XPB does have a hollow point, but it expands a little more ferociously than the traditional JHP. It erects multiple symmetrical petals as it tunnels into soft tissue, each of which tracks a distinct wound channel while transferring energy outward. Barnes’ monolithic bullet is lead-free. It’ll keep your barrel cleaner, it won’t pollute the environment, and its uniform weight distribution keeps it mighty well balanced in flight. This ammo is American-made. Brass-cased. Boxer-primed. Non-corrosive. Reloadable!
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.
