Hard cast
This is the answer to 9mm black bear ammo. I carry a G26 while backpacking so always worried about losing energy from short barrel. I get very little difference in ballistic gel from the 26 compared to my 17. Very happy with this. It’s not exactly a pleasure to shoot which is what I want from bear ammo.

My abuse hollow points as well as many other self-defense rounds and with Underwood and this round right here you cannot go wrong.

This ammunition features a heavy 147 grain flat nose hard cast lead bullet with a distinctive black cherry coating. The +P designation indicates higher pressure and velocity compared to standard 9mm rounds, offering increased stopping power. The hard cast lead construction ensures deep penetration and minimal expansion, making it effective for self-defense situations where barrier penetration may be necessary.
