Want to invest in 10mm defense ammo? Something that’s not particularly fancy, but by no means a compromise? Something backed by the surefire dependability of one of the biggest names in American ammunition manufacturing? Then we’ve got your Hornady American Gunner 10mm 155 grain XTP JHP ammo right here!
The XTP has a classic jacketed hollow point design, albeit with enough performance-enhancing tweaks to merit its own special name. Its swaged lead core is balanced for accuracy, but what’s really special about the XTP is its drawn gilding metal jacket.
The XTP’s jacket is tapered throughout the length of the bullet to promote more uniform expansion. Its rim is notched for the same purpose. And because the XTP’s rim is jacketed instead of bare lead, it can be trusted to glide smoothly into the chamber and overcome barrier penetration without significant deformation to its nose cavity. That helps it arrive at the threat with its capacity for terminal expansion fully intact.
