In the realm of firearms, precision is paramount. The Hornady 9mm Full Metal Jacket Round Nose (FMJ-RN) bullets exemplify this principle with their superior design tailored for plinking, target practice, and personal defense. Known for its dedication to quality and continuous improvement, Hornady has crafted these bullets to meet the diverse needs of shooters.
The core specifications of these bullets are a testament to their engineering excellence. With a caliber type of 9mm and a diameter measuring .355 inches, each bullet weighs in at an optimal 115 grains. The ballistic coefficient stands at .140 while the sectional density measures .130—features that contribute significantly to the bullet's performance.
Built specifically for competition shooting, Hornady has refined these bullets by removing expansion-aiding skives. This ensures consistent performance without unnecessary frills. Moreover, there is no exposed lead on the HAP® bullet nose thanks to its protective jacket—a feature that enhances safety during handling.
The swaged core is meticulously cold-formed from pure lead to guarantee uniformity across all rounds fired from your firearm. Such attention to detail culminates in reliable accuracy shot after shot.
A distinctive advantage lies in their boat tail design which facilitates flatter trajectories and improved long-range capabilities due to an elevated ballistic coefficient. These attributes make them not only ideal for paper targets but also effective when used against smaller game where controlled expansion upon impact is desired without damaging pelts.
Available in quantities ranging from boxes of one hundred up to six thousand rounds, Hornady offers competitive pricing options suitable for both casual enthusiasts and serious competitors alike.
