Performance and Reliability

The TAC-XP bullet's all-copper design eliminates the feeding inconsistencies sometimes associated with traditional jacketed hollow points. The large hollow-point cavity promotes rapid, controlled expansion while maintaining the penetration depth necessary for effective personal defense.

Nickel-plated cases feed smoothly through virtually all modern .40 S&W platforms, and the consistent powder charge and primer selection ensure reliable ignition shot after shot.

The lead-free construction makes these rounds suitable for indoor ranges and environmentally sensitive areas.
