Doubletap Ammunition Bonded Defense 40 S&W 165 Grain Jacketed Hollow Point ammunition is designed for use in firearms chambered for .40 Smith & Wesson (40 S&W). Here are some key details about this ammunition :
Caliber: .40 Smith & Wesson (40 S&W)
Bullet Weight: 165 grains
Bullet Type: Jacketed Hollow Point (JHP)
Purpose: Self-defense and personal protection
Jacketed Hollow Point (JHP) bullets are designed to expand upon impact, creating a larger wound channel and delivering effective stopping power, making them an excellent choice for self-defense and personal protection.
The 40 S&W cartridge is commonly used by law enforcement agencies and civilians for self-defense purposes due to its manageable recoil and effective stopping power.
When using self-defense ammunition like Doubletap Bonded Defense 40 S&W, it's important to have a firearm that reliably feeds and fires the ammunition, and to practice with it to ensure proper shot placement and accuracy in high-stress situations.
The information below comes from our Gun Caliber Dictionary and is for
general reference only. It does not describe the specifications of this
particular item.
Designed by Winchester and introduced by Winchester and Smith & Wesson in 1990, the 40 S&W was designed as a "compromise" semiautomatic pistol cartridge that would offer more performance than the 9mm Luger (9x19)…but would produce less recoil and allow higher magazine capacity than the 45 ACP. Few compromises in the firearms world have ever worked as well. From a manufacturing standpoint many pistols designed for the 9mm could be re-engineered to handle the larger cartridge; in a short time it has become a standard issue in the law enforcement community. Using a .400-inch bullet of from 135 to 180 grains from a .850-inch cae, the .40 S&W produces up to 1205 fps, and although recoil is greater than the 9mm, it is easier to shoot than the 45 ACP, and its greater velocity and smaller bullet diameter aid penetration.
