The TAC-XP is a solid copper (aka monolithic) hollow point. It is extremely accurate thanks both to its balanced weight distribution and inability to deposit lead fouling in a barrel’s rifling.
The TAC-XP is exceedingly durable, as it lacks a core and jacket that could break apart in addition to being formed out of strong, ductile copper. As the result the TAC-XP retains 100% of its weight before coming to a rest within ballistic gelatin (which simulates the density of soft tissue). It also stays relatively more intact upon penetrating tough urban barriers including drywall, sheet metal and auto glass. The TAC-XP’s superior weight retention pays off in the form of consistently deep penetration: 13.25” in bare ballistic gel.
The hollow point TAC-XP expands as it penetrates soft tissue as well. This bullet achieves an average expansion width of 0.69”, which is nearly double the 9mm bullet’s original diameter. That creates a more effective wound channel when all you want to do is neutralize the threat as quickly as possible.
Doubletap loads their ammo in the great state of Utah with high-quality brass cases and non-corrosive primers. This self-defense ammo’s propellant is formulated to reduce muzzle flash that could impact your vision while firing your handgun in a dark environment.
“+P” indicates that this is an overpressure 9mm cartridge. It’s loaded to generate a higher chamber pressure than what is standard for 9mm, and as such delivers a higher muzzle velocity, flatter trajectory and more energy on impact. Overpressure ammo accelerates wear and tear on a semi-auto’s moving parts, but that generally only becomes an issue if you fire it in high volumes during target practice. Modern pistols are nearly always designed to fire overpressure ammo without immediately breaking. If you’re uncertain whether your handgun is rated for +P, please check its manual or ask us!
