Hornady Handgun Bullets 9mm .355" 147 gr XTPHP 100/ct

The Hornady Handgun Bullets 9mm .355" 147 gr XTPHP 100/ct represents the gold standard for serious handgun ammunition across law enforcement, self-defense, and tactical training environments. Designed explicitly for duty-grade applications where terminal performance and shot-to-shot consistency demand excellence, the XTP (eXtreme Terminal Performance) hollow point has earned trust in hundreds of police departments and among professional shooters who refuse compromise on reliability. This 100-round box delivers the proven velocity and expansion characteristics that separate professional-grade ammunition from commodity alternatives.

The 147-grain XTP projectile employs Hornady's proprietary hollow-point cavity geometry, engineered to initiate controlled expansion at service velocities typical of 9mm duty loads while maintaining weight retention and penetration depth that meets FBI protocol standards. The bullet's cannelure provides consistent seating and reduced bullet setback during chambering—critical for duty weapons cycling repeatedly through defensive loads. Hornady's manufacturing process ensures tight concentricity and jacket-to-core bonding that eliminates inconsistencies; each round fires with repeatable ballistics essential for qualification ranges and precision work. The 100-count packaging reflects working ammunition volumes preferred by duty shooters, trainers, and competitors.

Law enforcement personnel and armed professionals specifically favor the 147-grain XTP for its balanced performance in standard and compact 9mm platforms; the heavier bullet weight reduces muzzle velocity variance and improves shot placement consistency compared to lighter projectiles, particularly in rapid-fire scenarios. This ammunition fires reliably in all modern 9mm Luger/.355 caliber handguns—Glock duty models, SIG Sauer P-series platforms, M&P systems, and CZ variants. Reloaders and shooters building custom duty loads also select XTP bullets individually; the 100-round box provides ample supply for load development, qualification preparation, or sustained training cycles. Compatible with both 9mm NATO and commercial 9mm Luger brass.
