Fiocchi 40sw 180gr Fmj 50/1000

The Fiocchi 40 S&W 180 Grain FMJ 50/1000 is a versatile, full metal jacket round engineered for consistent performance across range training, law enforcement duty, and defensive practice. Manufactured by Fiocchi of America—a heritage ammunition producer with decades of ballistic reliability—this 40 S&W load delivers predictable terminal performance and dependable function in semiautomatic duty weapons.

The 180-grain full metal jacket projectile travels at 1,000 feet per second, a velocity that balances controllability with effective energy transfer at typical combat and training distances. This mid-weight bullet construction resists deformation and penetration variation, making it ideal for shooters who demand consistency across multiple firearms. The FMJ design cycles reliably in modern semiautomatic platforms and is commonly preferred for range work where target penetration and minimal lead exposure are priorities. Each box contains 50 rounds, and the bulk 1,000-round format (twenty 50-round boxes) supports sustained training cycles and duty ammunition stockpiling without repetitive reordering.

This ammunition serves law enforcement officers, private security operators, and civilian shooters who train regularly in the .40 S&W platform. The 40 S&W cartridge remains a staple in duty holsters and defensive carry weapons, and Fiocchi's reputation for consistent pressure curves and primer ignition reliability means operators can focus on marksmanship and muscle memory rather than troubleshooting malfunctions. Shooters running duty weapons, competition practice, or high-round-count training events benefit from the predictable behavior and cost-per-round efficiency of bulk quantities.

The .40 S&W occupies a middle ground in the semiautomatic handgun market—offering greater energy than 9mm while maintaining lower recoil impulse than larger magnum rounds. This balance historically made it a preferred duty caliber in law enforcement and remains relevant for shooters seeking moderate recoil management without sacrifice of stopping energy. Fiocchi's consistent manufacturing standards ensure uniform velocity spread and pressure, critical factors for duty-grade ammunition selection.
