The Winchester S40SWPDB Defender delivers maximum stopping power through bonded jacket hollow point technology specifically engineered for personal protection scenarios. This premium 40 S&W ammunition combines controlled expansion with deep penetration to neutralize threats effectively.

What Makes This Different

The bonded jacket construction prevents core separation during expansion, maintaining bullet integrity through barriers like heavy clothing, wallboard, and auto glass. Unlike standard hollow points that can fragment or fail to expand consistently, the Defender's bonded design ensures reliable performance across varying impact velocities. The 165-grain projectile strikes the optimal balance between manageable recoil and terminal effectiveness in 40 S&W platforms.

Key Features

  • Bonded jacket hollow point prevents core-jacket separation for consistent expansion
  • 165-grain bullet weight optimized for 40 S&W ballistic performance
  • Nickel-plated brass cases resist corrosion and enhance feeding reliability
  • Low-flash powder reduces muzzle signature in low-light situations
  • Consistent velocities averaging 1130 fps from 4-inch test barrels
  • 20 rounds per box packaging for convenient range sessions and carry rotation
  • Compatible with all 40 S&W chambered pistols and carbines
Field testing demonstrates reliable expansion to approximately 0.65 inches with 12-15 inches of penetration in ballistic gelatin. The ammunition functions flawlessly in duty pistols from Glock, Smith & Wesson, and Sig Sauer, cycling smoothly through both full-size and compact frames. Weather-sealed primers and powder charges maintain consistent ignition in temperature extremes from -20°F to 140°F.
