This fast-moving defensive load from Remington's HTP (High Terminal Performance) series is an excellent choice for .40 S&W pistols.

Each cartridge in this case of 500 (10 boxes of 50) fires a 155 grain jacketed hollow point bullet at 1,205 feet per second. This combination of a relatively light projectile and a high muzzle velocity give these rounds more reliable expansion while still benefiting from the .40 Smith & Wesson's high mass and caliber.

Remington HTP ammo is loaded in Lonoke, Arkansas using non-corrosive Boxer primers and brass cases. While it's not very likely that you'll need 500 rounds in a self-defense situation, this case is ideal for getting enough ammo to train with your carry load at a better price.

Ballistics Test Summary

For the past few decades, gelatin testing has been one of the primary tools used by ballistics experts to attempt to predict the real world performance of self-defense ammunition. Following the protocol first established by the FBI, we fired five rounds of Remington 155 Grain into Clear Ballistics synthetic gelatin. Each round was fired from a Glock 27 pistol from 10 feet away with a four-layer barrier of heavy fabric placed in front of the gelatin to simulate an attacker wearing thick clothing.

The data we gathered for penetration depth, expanded diameter, and bullet velocity is all in the chart below. The diagrams at the bottom of the page should give you an idea of how this load compares to other .40 S&W (Smith & Wesson) loads. Photos of the expanded bullets that were retrieved from the gel are in the slide show below on the left. On the right is a slow motion video that shows the first of the five bullets entering the gelatin block at approximately 1/300th the speed of real time.
