In the realm of precision shooting, Hornady stands as a beacon of quality and innovation. Their commitment to continuous improvement is evident in every product they offer, particularly within their reloading division. For those who seek to tailor their ammunition precisely to their needs, Hornady provides tools that make handloading safe and straightforward.
The 9mm HAP® (Hornady Action Pistol) bullet exemplifies this dedication with its meticulous engineering. Each bullet boasts a diameter of .355 inches and weighs in at 115 grains, striking an ideal balance for competitive shooters. The ballistic coefficient sits at .129 while maintaining a sectional density of .130—numbers that translate into superior aerodynamic performance.
At the heart of the HAP bullet lies a cold-swaged pure lead core. This manufacturing process ensures consistency, balance, and stability during flight—a trifecta that results in pinpoint accuracy shot after shot. The copper jacket enveloping this core serves two critical purposes: it protects the nose from damage and ensures smooth feeding into your firearm without jamming.
Designed without cannelures or folds typically used for expansion control, these bullets focus on delivering unmatched accuracy through simplicity and reliability. Whether chambered in 9mm or other popular calibers like .40 Smith & Wesson or .45 caliber variants, Hornady's HAP Handgun Bullets are favored by competitive marksmen for their consistent performance under pressure.
If you demand excellence from your ammunition—and refuse to settle for anything less—the Hornady HAP offers an economical yet uncompromising solution tailored specifically for peak handgun performance.
