Details
The 9×18mm Makarov cartridge was designed by B.V. Semin in 1946. It was intended for the pistol that would replace the Soviet army’s TT-33, which had an extremely disadvantageous design flaw where it might suddenly eject its magazine while in operation. (One might imagine Captain Dmitri’s annoyance when his pistol suddenly decided to expel all of its cartridges while he was trying to do business on the Eastern Front.)
This 9×18mm Makarov cartridge has a 95 grain projectile, a very common weight for its caliber. The bullet sports a full metal jacket, which gives it a marvelous ability to penetrate targets, and also saves your pistol’s bore from the kind of residue accumulation that would have quickly loosened up your groupings. Its non-corrosive Boxer primer means this cartridge will sit safely in your weapon or in its box for a long time, and its factory fresh brass casing is perfect for handloading.
