Berry's Hybrid Hollow Point 9mm 147gr Bullets
Berry's Hybrid Hollow Point 9mm bullets deliver reliable expansion with 98% weight retention. Engineered for 11-13" penetration in gelatin at recommended velocities of 975-1075 fps.
Berry's Hybrid Hollow Point 9mm Handgun Bullets
Berry's Hybrid Hollow Point represents a thoughtful synthesis of two proven hollow point designs, resulting in a bullet that balances expansion with penetration—the eternal trade-off in defensive ammunition.
Design and Construction
These 147-grain bullets feature a copper-plated jacket bonded to a swaged lead core. The hybrid hollow point cavity was engineered through careful development to optimize performance across a range of velocities and target materials.
Performance Characteristics
- Penetration: 11-13 inches in ballistic gelatin
- Weight Retention: Minimum 98 percent
- Recommended Velocity: 975-1075 fps
- SAAMI Maximum COL: 1.169 inches
- Quantity: 1000 bullets per container
Ideal For
These bullets work well for handloaders seeking consistent, reliable performance in 9mm defensive or target loads. The bonded construction and high weight retention make them suitable for serious applications where penetration and expansion must work in concert.
Reloading Notes
The .356-inch diameter and 147-grain weight are standard for 9mm applications. Work up loads carefully within the recommended velocity range to achieve optimal expansion and penetration characteristics.
