The Fort Scott Munitions 9mm +P 80gr SCV delivers maximum terminal performance through solid copper construction and tumbling projectile design. This premium defensive ammunition combines +P velocity with a lightweight 80-grain bullet for devastating wound channels and reliable expansion.
What Makes This Different
The SCV (Solid Copper Spun) projectile features a unique tumbling design that creates larger wound cavities compared to traditional hollow point rounds. Unlike conventional lead-core bullets that may fragment or fail to expand, the solid copper construction maintains structural integrity while maximizing tissue disruption. The 80-grain weight allows for higher velocities while reducing felt recoil, making follow-up shots faster and more accurate.
Key Features
- Solid copper construction eliminates lead exposure and barrel fouling
- Tumbling projectile design creates devastating wound channels
- +P loading delivers 1,200+ fps muzzle velocity for superior penetration
- 80-grain weight reduces recoil while maintaining stopping power
- Match-grade brass cases for consistent ignition and extraction
- Lead-free design safe for indoor ranges and environmentally sensitive areas
- Precision-machined projectiles ensure consistent accuracy and performance
Field testing demonstrates exceptional performance in ballistic gelatin, with the tumbling action creating wound channels significantly larger than the projectile diameter. The solid copper construction penetrates barriers like heavy clothing and drywall while maintaining trajectory stability. Law enforcement agencies report reliable feeding in duty pistols including Glock, Smith & Wesson M&P, and SIG Sauer platforms.
