Hollow point ammo is designed for causing MAXIMUM organ damage-— they expand on entering soft tissue. In other words they blow through people, killing them.... not “restraining” them or “security at their facilities” in ANY other sense.

Which is fine if it's a 135gr bullet coming out of a .40S&W, not so effective as you define with a 180gr. Never understood why they made them in that weight.

that is the standard .40 round designed for penetration, good 180's will expand at close range. That is also what most factory .40 recoil springs are designed to use.

purpose of the .40 is less recoil than 10mm but more penetration than 9mm. This came about after the famous miami shoot out. (don't bring pistols to a rifle fight)

Good point on the 180 grain round. I contend this is not for target practice. And, again the quanities listed are for the “set aside” bid... not the full quantities being ordered the remainder of which are not publicly disclosed. Thanks!
