This 40 S&W self-defense cartridge by Underwood looks a little different, with a bullet that resembles a drill bit more than any hollow point. It’s the Xtreme Defender, and it’s an absolute beast!
This round’s 115 grain bullet is lightweight for a 40 cal because it’s made entirely of copper. As the result it shoots clean and has a blistering fast muzzle velocity, and because it doesn’t fragment or expand within soft tissue it’s able to penetrate as deeply as 18”.
The Xtreme Defender creates a far wider wound channel than its diameter alone could account for. Its radial flutes essentially scoop up soft tissues and jet them rapidly outward to create a gaping, permanent wound cavity – a huge predicament for the threat it neutralizes. And because it hasn’t got a nose cavity that could get clogged up, the Xtreme Defender stays effective after having passed through a variety of different barriers.
The Xtreme Defender’s unique nose profile supports smoother feeding in a semi-auto, and this round’s nickel plated case limits metal-on-metal friction for even more certain functionality. This round is an ideal choice for self-defense in the nighttime – not only is its glossy case easier to see in the chamber, but its low flash propellant won’t destroy your night vision the instant you’ve fired your first shot!
