I bought some Freedom Munitions XDEF Defense .380 Auto 95 gr Hollow Points for my LCP. It got good reviews so far, six 5* reviews and one 4.5*. It doesn't have any reviews yet at their sister site, LAX Ammunition.
X-DEF is an entirely new personal protection projectile, designed and rigorously tested by Freedom Munitions to ensure it meet (sic
) the FBI protocol for ballistic testing. We load X-DEF in nickel plated brass cases for improved function, and use only premium low-flash powders from Vihtavuori to ensure X-DEF outperforms the competition. They use brass cases, not nickel plated brass. I guess that's all they can get. The core of the bullet has a hollow-point shaped like a perfect 6-pointed star. It looked like a Torx wrench would fit right in there. So I tried a few bits from my Callahan 123-Piece Gunsmithing Screwdriver Set, and found out it's a Torx T15 hollow-point core setting down inside the jacket. I had to stick the bit to a magnet to stand it up for a picture. If I have to use this ammo on anyone and it works as intended,
they're screwed. And if it doesn't work,
I'm screwed.
I rotated the image for anyone who has trouble reading sideways. Reading upside down has always been easier for me than sideways, but this was clear to me at full size.
