The Buffalo Bore 24C20 Personal Defense ammunition delivers maximum stopping power through precision-engineered 147-grain jacketed hollow point bullets loaded to +P+ pressures. This premium defensive load generates velocities that exceed standard pressure ammunition while maintaining the weight retention and expansion characteristics critical for personal protection scenarios.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard pressure 9mm loads, this +P+ configuration pushes 147-grain bullets to velocities typically reserved for lighter projectiles. The heavy bullet weight combined with elevated pressures creates superior penetration through barriers while the jacketed hollow point design ensures reliable expansion in soft tissue. Buffalo Bore's reputation for consistent quality control means each cartridge delivers uniform performance when reliability matters most.
Key Features
- 147-grain jacketed hollow point bullets for optimal expansion and penetration balance
- +P+ pressure loading generates approximately 1,175 fps muzzle velocity
- Heavy bullet construction maintains trajectory stability at extended ranges
- Nickel-plated brass cases resist corrosion and aid smooth feeding
- Compatible with all 9mm Luger chambered firearms rated for +P+ pressures
- Low flash powder reduces muzzle signature in low-light conditions
- Manufactured to SAAMI specifications for consistent chambering
This ammunition performs effectively across multiple defensive scenarios, from concealed carry applications to home defense situations. The 147-grain bullet weight provides sufficient mass for reliable penetration through heavy clothing and intermediate barriers while the hollow point cavity initiates expansion upon impact with soft tissue. Law enforcement agencies and security professionals rely on similar heavy bullet +P+ loads for their proven terminal performance characteristics.
