g9 defense 1 word (wow), this is a fantastic round for concealed carry. Having an external hollow point round is extremely valuable. Having the ability to shoot through a front windshield on a car with little to no bullet drop.

Excellent defensive ammo. I have fortunately not had to try it in real life (ironic pun intended) but it cycles well in my Taurus GX4 XL. There are many other positive reviews about which I have read. Keep this one in your "ready mags".

Wicked ammo absolutely awesome. Leaves a big permanent wound cavity while also creating a very impressive temporary cavity while not being stopped up with debris like traditional hollow points

I have tested this ammunition in my G45 and my G43X. It works well in both. This ammo has a great reputation for creating a huge wound cavity, acceptable penetration without having to rely on the expansion needed for a normal hollow point. I believe they would be effective if needed in a defensive situation.

These little boogers are loud, but they pack a mean punch. I have an old school CZ75 and it doesn’t feed hollow point, but it eats these rounds all day. Tested on all my 9mm guns, and not one issue. Extremely reliable. And of course the 80 grain is perfect for subcompact pistols… makes the gun lighter and they perform better in short barrels. I’m absolutely convinced this is the best edc round available.
Pros:
light weight
reliable
expansion
penetration
Ballistic Performance
Cons:
Expensive
Loud
Best Used for:
Home Defense
Everyday carry
Personal Defense
