Q & A
Is my 9mm pistol rated for +P ammunition?
Check your firearm’s manual. Most modern service pistols from major manufacturers (Glock, SIG, S&W, etc.) are rated for limited use of +P ammunition. It is not recommended for older or alloy-framed pistols not specifically designed for higher pressure. Consistent use of +P may accelerate wear.
Is this ammunition suitable for self-defense?
Yes. The Hornady XTP bullet is a widely trusted design for defensive use, offering reliable expansion and penetration. The +P loading provides enhanced terminal performance. Always verify function and point of impact in your specific firearm.
How is this packaged?
The 500 rounds come in 25 factory-sealed boxes of 20 rounds each. The boxes are packed in a sturdy Hornady case for storage and transport. The total shipping weight is approximately 32 lbs.
