Winchester’s USA Ready Defense ammunition is top notch stuff! You could use this 9mm +P ammo for match shooting if you so please, although its accuracy and reliability make it a flawless solution for self-defense with a handgun or carbine.

This round has a middleweight 124 grain jacketed hollow point projectile, with a notched rim to promote more reliable and uniform terminal expansion. The bullet’s nose cavity features Winchester’s Hex-Vent – a rigid polymer column that prevents the hollow point from clogging with fabric and other debris that could impact its ability to expand on cue. As the JHP penetrates, the Hex-Vent presses inward to force the bullet open, even at lower velocities.

But this round certainly has got velocity working on its side. It’s a 9mm +P round, so its bullet exits the barrel faster than usual to follow a flatter trajectory and strike its target with greater energy. A 9mm +P round is loaded to a higher pressure that most modern pistols are designed to safely handle. All Glocks are rated for 9mm +P, for example.

This cartridge has excellent supporting components including a match grade primer. We love to see a self-defense round equipped with a nickel-plated brass case, as that exterior plating helps to reduce friction which could cause a failure to extract and also wards off corrosion.

Q: Is this a bonded bullet? Would like to see Lucky Gunner test these.

A: Thanks for reaching out David! This cartridge's bullet does not have a bonded jacket. I would love to see our ballistics boys sink a few of these rounds into some Jello. I'll tell them you're interested as well.
