The Remington Golden Saber 40 S&W delivers consistent expansion and penetration for personal defense applications. This 180-grain jacketed hollow point ammunition features brass-jacketed construction that maintains bullet integrity through various barriers while providing reliable terminal performance.
What Makes This Different
The Golden Saber's spiral-cut jacket design creates controlled expansion that outperforms standard hollow points in FBI protocol testing. The brass jacket reduces barrel leading compared to copper-plated alternatives while maintaining feeding reliability in semi-automatic pistols. Independent ballistic testing shows consistent expansion between 0.65-0.70 inches across various clothing barriers.
Key Features
- 180-grain jacketed hollow point with spiral-cut expansion cavity
- Brass jacket construction reduces barrel fouling and wear
- Nickel-plated brass cases prevent corrosion and aid extraction
- Muzzle velocity of 1015 fps with 411 ft-lbs energy
- Consistent expansion through heavy clothing and denim barriers
- Low-flash powder formula reduces muzzle signature
- Compatible with all 40 S&W chambered firearms
Law enforcement agencies have adopted Golden Saber ammunition for duty carry based on its barrier penetration characteristics and consistent terminal ballistics. The load maintains accuracy standards of 2-3 inches at 25 yards from service pistols while delivering sufficient penetration depth of 12-15 inches in ballistic gelatin. The nickel-plated cases feed smoothly in high-capacity magazines and resist tarnishing during extended storage.
