The Remington Golden Saber Bonded 40 S&W delivers consistent terminal performance through advanced bonded bullet technology that prevents jacket separation during expansion. This 180-grain jacketed hollow point ammunition maintains weight retention rates exceeding 95% while achieving controlled expansion across various barrier materials.
What Makes This Different
The bonded core construction sets this ammunition apart from standard hollow points that rely solely on mechanical jacket attachment. Remington's electrochemical bonding process creates a molecular bond between the brass jacket and lead core, eliminating the jacket separation issues common with conventional JHP designs. This bonding technology maintains bullet integrity through intermediate barriers like heavy clothing, wallboard, and automotive glass while still providing reliable expansion in soft tissue.
Key Features
- Bonded brass jacket and lead core prevents separation during expansion
- 180-grain bullet weight optimized for 40 S&W ballistics
- Jacketed hollow point design for controlled expansion
- Nickel-plated brass cases resist corrosion and aid extraction
- Consistent powder charges for uniform velocity and accuracy
- 20 rounds per box packaging for range training and duty use
- Compatible with all standard 40 S&W firearms
Field testing demonstrates this ammunition's ability to penetrate FBI protocol barriers while maintaining expansion characteristics. The 180-grain bullet weight provides optimal momentum transfer in the 40 S&W cartridge, balancing penetration depth with expansion diameter. Law enforcement agencies have documented consistent performance across temperature ranges from -20°F to 140°F, making this ammunition suitable for year-round duty carry.
