S&b 40 S&w 130gr Xrg 25/1000

The Sellier & Bellot 40 S&W 130-grain XRG ammunition delivers proven defensive performance in a light-for-caliber configuration optimized for compact handguns and modern law enforcement duty weapons. XRG hollow-point rounds feature solid copper construction that consistently achieves near 100% weight retention through intermediate barriers, a critical reliability metric for duty ammunition where barrier performance determines stopping effectiveness.

The 130-grain projectile weight in 40 S&W produces measurable velocity gains—this load achieves 1247 feet per second—while reducing perceived recoil compared to standard 165–180-grain 40 S&W duty rounds. That velocity advantage enables reliable expansion from subcompact polymer-frame defensive pistols where velocity thresholds are tighter. The hollow-point geometry provides controlled expansion without fragmentation, maintaining energy transfer and penetration consistency across varied real-world barriers including vehicle glass, drywall, and heavy clothing layers that patrol officers and armed citizens encounter.

This ammunition serves law enforcement agencies, armed security professionals, and serious civilians who carry compact 40 S&W platforms for duty or personal defense. The 25-round box configuration supports inventory management for regular practice and duty rotation. Sellier & Bellot ammunition has been validated in field use by European law enforcement organizations, establishing a track record in operational environments where hollow-point performance demands are unforgiving.

The 40 S&W cartridge offers a middle-ground ballistic profile between 9mm and 45 ACP, and light-weight ammunition variants like this XRG load shift the performance envelope toward velocity-dependent expansion, making them suited for users who prioritize manageable recoil in compact weapons without sacrificing terminal ballistics. This product is sold per box and shipped as packaged by the manufacturer.
