In the realm of defensive ammunition, Lehigh Defense stands as a paragon of innovation and performance. The Xtreme Defense (XD) Lead-Free Bullets in .44 MAG and .44 SPL calibers exemplify this dedication to excellence. Born from the renowned Xtreme Penetrator line, these bullets are crafted not just for penetration but also for creating an unparalleled permanent wound cavity.
The XD Technology is designed with precision: its optimized nose flute design ensures that each bullet achieves a remarkable penetration depth range of up to 18 inches. This balance caters to those who seek both formidable stopping power and manageable recoil—a combination rarely achieved without compromise.
What sets the XD apart is its ability to produce a permanent wound cavity over twice the size of any expanding hollow point on the market today. Such capabilities are typically reserved for rifle rounds like those in the 5.56 caliber class, yet Lehigh Defense manages this feat within handgun parameters.
This ammunition exhibits near barrier-blind characteristics, effectively maintaining its trajectory through common obstructions such as wallboard, sheet metal, and automotive glass—an assurance that when you need it most, your round will perform reliably.
Packed at velocities ranging from an impressive low end of 800 fps to a staggering high end of 4000 fps depending on firearm configuration, each box contains fifty meticulously engineered projectiles ready to deliver unmatched terminal performance while minimizing felt recoil.
