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 - 230 Grain FNEB - Remington Subsonic - 50 Rounds

Do you have a 45 ACP handgun? Do you also have a suppressor? Then all you need now is the ammo. Remington and Advanced Armament Corporation codeveloped this ammo so you can maximize your suppressed handgun’s performance. The 45 ACP is already a subsonic cartridge, and Remington’s Subsonic label ammo certainly doesn’t reinvent the wheel in that department. What this cartridge offers that’s special is its bullet: a flat nose enclosed base. No part of the bullet’s core is exposed to hot propellant gasses during ignition, so you can look forward to not having to scrub any lead residue off of your suppressor’s ports or baffles. This bullet’s flat nose profile won’t deliver terminal expansion. But if your objective is to avoid deafening yourself while you use your handgun during home defense, you’ll still find 230 grains of lead and copper suitable for the job. This bullet transfers more than 320 ft lbs of energy over any distance your home could possibly contain. Even if it hasn’t got a suppressor, your handgun should have zero difficulty cycling this brass-cased, non-corrosive and clean-burning American-made ammunition.
