10MM HORNADY AMERICAN GUNNER 155 GRAIN XTP JHP (20 ROUNDS)

You’re an American! You’re a gunner! Dare we say it? You’re an American Gunner – precisely the sort of outstanding character who ought to use Hornady’s 10mm Auto ammo for self-defense.

This round’s bullet is no bog-standard jacketed hollow point. The eXtreme Terminal Performance discards the classic plated jacket in favor of a drawn one, which is why its jacket varies in thickness throughout its length. By thinning down toward its rim, the jacket helps the XTP expand wider when it’s cruising with less energy. The XTP’s rim also wears symmetrical serrations, which strategically weaken it even further.

And the XTP’s jacket doesn’t stop there. It leaves no part of the lead core’s nose cavity’s rim exposed, which prevents feeding complications and ensures that the hollow point functions correctly on impact.

This round’s 155 grain bullet departs a 5” barrel at a velocity of 1,410 fps, which spells 650+ ft lbs striking energy at very close range. Even if the XTP didn’t live up to its name, such power would prove more than enough to halt the threat (so long as it’s aimed well, naturally).
