PPU PPD40 Defense 40 S&W 180gr JHP Ammunition 50 Round Box

The PPU PPD40 Defense delivers reliable expansion and penetration for serious personal protection applications. This 180-grain jacketed hollow point ammunition combines Serbian manufacturing precision with proven terminal ballistics in the popular 40 S&W cartridge.

What Makes This Different

Prvi Partizan's Defense line uses controlled-expansion hollow point bullets engineered for consistent performance in defensive scenarios. The 180-grain bullet weight provides substantial momentum while maintaining manageable recoil in compact and full-size pistols. Unlike standard ball ammunition, these JHP rounds expand reliably through common barriers while minimizing over-penetration risks.

Key Features

• 180-grain jacketed hollow point bullets for optimal expansion
• Brass cases suitable for reloading applications
• Boxer primers ensure reliable ignition
• Muzzle velocity approximately 1000 fps from 4-inch barrel
• 50 rounds per box for extended range sessions
• Compatible with all 40 S&W chambered firearms
• Non-corrosive powder and primers

This ammunition performs consistently across various barrel lengths and pistol platforms. Law enforcement agencies and civilian shooters rely on the 40 S&W cartridge for its balance of stopping power and controllability. The hollow point design expands predictably in ballistic gelatin while maintaining structural integrity through intermediate barriers like drywall and light clothing.
