40 S&W - 155 Grain JHP - Winchester Silvertip - 20 Rounds

When other people hear the phrase “silver bullet” they might think of werewolves or beer. But when shooters hear it, they think of Silvertip – one of Winchester’s most popular solutions for self-defense for over 30 years! This 40 S&W round’s sheeny bullet weighs 155 grains. At that mass it achieves a muzzle velocity of about 1,200 fps out of a handgun’s barrel, enabling it to plow into a target at close range with over 450 ft lbs of energy. (That’s a lot more than the bare minimum recommended for self-defense, hence the 40 S&W’s popularity among law enforcement officers who have to contend with heavily intoxicated threats.) But the Silvertip bullet isn’t a brute – it uses its energy wisely. This JHP bullet’s jacket is not only shaped to facilitate feeding in a semi-auto, but also to promote wide and rapid terminal expansion. The rim of its nose cavity also features long notches, each of which deliberately weakens the jacket to shape extremely uniform mushrooming. In short, this bullet makes a much bigger hole in its target than its original diameter alone could account for. A Silvertip round leaves little to chance with its outstanding brass case, non-corrosive primer, and propellant that is formulated to produce less of the residue which can impact a handgun’s functionality. Are you looking for good self-defense ammo for a 40 S&W handgun? Here you have it.

45 ACP - 230 Grain TMJ - Speer LAWMAN - 50 Rounds

Speer® brought sport shooters and law enforcement the excellence of Lawman over 35 years ago. Back in 1968, the line included various calibers of centerfire handgun ammunition, and quickly earned a reputation as a high-performance and reliable product. Lawman is attractively priced, and the cases are reloadable with clean-burning propellants and reliable CCI primers to complete the package. Total metal jacket (TMJ) is different from full metal jacket (FMJ) due to TMJ bullets having no exposed lead bases, this makes TMJ bullets better suited for firing in indoor ranges since there will be fewer lead particulates floating in the air after firing .
