The Winchester S380PDB Defender delivers maximum terminal performance in a compact 380 ACP package, engineered specifically for personal defense applications. This bonded jacketed hollow point ammunition combines controlled expansion with deep penetration to stop threats effectively.
What Makes This Different
The bonded jacket construction prevents core separation during expansion, maintaining bullet integrity through barriers like heavy clothing or drywall. Standard hollow points often fragment or fail to expand consistently, while the Defender's bonded design ensures reliable expansion at 380 ACP velocities. Winchester's proprietary bonding process creates a permanent bond between the lead core and copper jacket, delivering consistent performance shot after shot.Key Features
