Description
DoubleTap Ammunition Home Defense loads are engineered for personal protection, and this .40 S&W offering delivers serious defensive performance from a service-size handgun. The 135-grain Jacketed Hollow Point is designed for controlled expansion and deep penetration, making it well-suited to home-defense duty in compact and full-size .40 S&W pistols.
Loaded to a muzzle velocity of 1375 fps, this round produces 566 ft lbs of muzzle energy – aggressive numbers that translate into real-world stopping performance. Independent gel testing records 11.75″ of penetration with .68″ of expansion in 10% ballistic gelatin, striking a balance between threat-stopping depth and reduced risk of over-penetration. The brass case supports reliable feeding and extraction across a wide range of duty and carry pistols, while the jacketed hollow-point construction balances penetration with expansion for threats that need to be stopped quickly.
Whether you keep a .40 S&W pistol bedside, in a quick-access safe, or as part of a duty rotation, this load is built to be ready when called upon. Each box ships with 20 rounds, giving you a manageable quantity for practice and a quick replenishment cycle for your defensive magazines.
Your purchase options:
- Box – 20 Rounds: One factory box of 20 rounds for range work, handgun familiarization, or topping off a defensive magazine.
- Case – 1000 Rounds (50 Boxes): Fifty factory boxes totaling 1000 rounds, ideal for stocking up on a proven home-defense load.
