Hrndy Xtp 9mm .355 147gr 100ct

The Hornady XTP 9mm .355 147-grain bullets (100-count) are purpose-built projectiles designed for handloaders seeking consistent expansion and reliable performance in 9mm semi-automatic platforms. The 147-grain weight represents the heavy end of the 9mm spectrum, delivering superior penetration and energy retention compared to lighter projectiles while maintaining manageable recoil in standard duty and defensive loads.

Hornady XTP (eXtreme Terminal Performance) bullets feature a gilding metal jacket that protects the projectile's nose during feeding and handling. The design emphasizes balanced expansion—controlled mushrooming that maximizes wound channel depth without excessive fragmentation or jacket separation. This characteristic makes the XTP round suitable for both range training and defensive applications where terminal performance matters. The 9mm .355 diameter ensures proper fit across standard 9mm platforms, and the bullet's construction promotes reliable feeding in modern semi-automatic actions used by law enforcement and civilian operators.

Serious reloaders, law enforcement armorsmiths, and civilian handloaders working up duty-grade 9mm ammunition choose XTP projectiles for consistency and predictability. The 100-count package provides enough components for multiple loading sessions or small-batch development. Hornady's reloading division maintains strict quality standards, making these bullets suitable for precision rifle work on duty-grade pistol ammunition. Whether developing a subsonic load for suppressed work or a full-power round for tactical training, the XTP's proven expansion characteristics and jacket integrity make it a dependable choice for those who reload their own ammunition.
