Designed for hunting, self-defense and law enforcement applications, the XTP bullet demonstrates the kind of accuracy that led many competitive shooters to adopt it. The stopping power of the XTP bullet has a truly built its world-class reputation. Precise serrations divide the bullet into symmetrical sections, strategically weakening the jacket and initiating controlled expansion even at low velocities. The gilding metal jacket protects the nose of the bullet, while the total uniformity of core density ensures balanced expansion as well as in-flight stability. The XTP Mag bullets provide the same controlled expansion, accuracy and dependability as regular XTP's, but are built to withstand the higher velocities and impacts from ultra-powerful, magnum handguns.
