500 Rounds of 165gr JHP .40 S&W Ammo by Winchester

In 1986 an event took place that would have permanent effects on the ammunition industry and firearms in general. It was the 1986 FBI Miami Shootout, and it involved a pair of serial bank robbers and a team of FBI agents. The robbers led the agents on a car chase, and when the cars finally came to a screeching halt in the streets of Miami, a firefight ensued. Although both robbers were shot early on they continued to fight, managing to shoot all the FBI agents except for one before succumbing to their own wounds. When it was over, the FBI decided their agents needed to be armed with more powerful yet manageable rounds, and four years later, the .40 S&W was created.

These particular .40 S&W rounds are manufactured by Winchester. Each round is 165 grain, making them medium-weight for this cartridge size. That means these rounds are light enough to zip down-range at higher speeds than their heavier counterparts but heavy enough to inflict serious damage on impact. These are Jacketed Hollow Point, JHP, rounds and begin to expand immediately upon impact. Because they’re jacketed, expansion is controlled more than with standard HPs, allowing for greater penetration and a more devastating wound cavity. Each round has a muzzle velocity of 1140 feet per second and muzzle energy of 476 foot-pounds. This ammunition is specifically designed for self-defense use.

When you order this case of Winchester ammunition you get 10 boxes containing 50 rounds each for a total of 500 defense rounds.
