25 Rounds of 124gr JHP 9mm Ammo by Hornady

Why is this 9mm ammunition by Hornady such a wise selection for self-defense? Because it is loaded with the Nebraskan company’s own 124 grain eXtreme Terminal Performance – a jacketed hollow point that couples the outstanding accuracy and terminal ballistics you want on your side when the situation looks grim.

The XTP features a swaged lead core and concentric jacket, which together provide the superb rotational stability the bullet needs to keep its nose pointed toward its target. The XTP’s fully jacketed rim prevents the bullet from getting snagged up while feeding through a semi-automatic, and also averts damage that could have impaired its ability to expand uniformly.

The XTP features a drawn gilding metal jacket. That is why its jacket becomes thinner toward its front section, which alongside its symmetrically notched rim ensures wide-diameter expansion even at lower velocities.

This round’s 1,110 fps muzzle velocity out of a 4” barrel makes it just barely subsonic, so your pistol will produce less noise when you fire it – excellent if you’re making use of a suppressor at the same time. Hornady’s premium reloadable brass cases, best-in-class Boxer primers and matched low-residue propellant all give their Custom series ammunition extremely reliable performance out of a wide range of 9mm firearms!
