9mm 90 grain Hollow point-265% expansion

[Jchrisls]

This was in my recommended feed. After watching the video I can honestly say I have never seen a hollow point perform this well. Zero fragmentation, flowers ( expands as a flower) to over 1 1/4", exceeds FPS stated on packaging and remains in ballistic gel @ less than 9". Of course while looking for it, due to the video it's sold out.


Video included as proof.

Link to distributor as proof it's out of stock.

Looking for insight from more experienced shooters- is it worth it? Would you carry this?

I wouldn`t mind trying some for myself to see how they work. Likely gonna be hard to find though. Probably real pricey too.

Really not that bad. $40/box. When it comes to self defense ammo though, how much is too much? So much rides on that tiny little projectile.

Well i agree with you, $40 bucks is a hell of a deal to save your life if it came down to that. I`m sure we will see a few people run it thru the mill to see how good it is. I`m curious to see how well it does in the real world. Never know, it might be the be all of everything out there. Time will tell.

I`ll be on the hunt for some too. Looks pretty interesting.

Don’t know if I need this fancy ammo
I read somewhere back that a regular 9mm bullet will blow the lung out of the body
Lol!

Looks like it'll work well as long as there's no heavy clothing in front.

Penetration matters first then expansion

It passes through denim in the one video I saw but I’d like to see the penetration on them out of a 3” barrel.

Same but 4 (walther)

If it’s acceptable with a 3” barrel it should be GTG with a 4” barrel.

Agree with others above, penetration is much more important. I have recently switched my carry load over to Critical Duty for the winter. People are wearing many layers and heavy carhart jackets. If the round doesn't reach vital organs the expansion isn't going to stop them. They'll be off to the hospital to get sewn up after they're done with you.

I use critical defense and HST. I do have a mag of critical duty for barrier penetration if needed.

124gr is the only 9mm load there is.
