Hollow point ammo is the standard for self defense and law enforcement. A JHP bullet expands on impact, transferring energy and reducing the risk of over-penetration. At Gunners Outlet we carry JHP and hollow point ammunition in 9mm, .40 S&W, .45 ACP, .380 ACP, .357 Magnum, .38 Special and more, from Federal, Speer Gold Dot, Hornady, Remington and CCI. Order online and we ship fast from our New Hampshire warehouse. Every listing shows the price per round.
Why Choose Hollow Point Ammo
A jacketed hollow point has a cavity in the nose that opens up when it hits soft tissue. The bullet mushrooms to a larger diameter, which creates a bigger wound channel and helps it stop inside the target instead of passing through.
Premium defensive hollow points such as Federal HST, Speer Gold Dot and Hornady Critical Defense are designed to expand reliably even after passing through heavy clothing. Many are bonded, so the jacket and core stay together.
Hollow points are also used for varmint and some hunting loads. For carry, choose a proven JHP and test it in your firearm.
Testing Your Carry Load
Defensive hollow points can feed differently than round-nose FMJ, so run at least 100 rounds of your chosen load through your carry pistol before trusting it. Make sure it chambers smoothly, ejects consistently and hits where you aim at defensive distances.
