Barnes Bullets 21555 TAC-XPD Defense Handgun 45ACP +P 185gr 20 Per Box/10 Case

The Barnes Bullets TAC-XPD is a 45 ACP +P defense round built around Barnes' proven TAC-XP hollow-point bullet—a purpose-built choice for shooters who prioritize reliable performance when it matters most. This is serious ammunition for serious defensive use: each round pairs the all-copper TAC-XP projectile with a +P loading to deliver the velocity and energy needed for consistent expansion and penetration in defensive scenarios. Whether you're stocking a home defense firearm or carrying for personal protection, TAC-XPD ammunition is engineered to perform under the conditions that count.

The TAC-XP's all-copper construction and deep hollow-point design are engineered to expand reliably across a broad range of velocities and barrier conditions—a critical advantage in real-world defensive encounters where shot placement and bullet behavior determine outcomes. Lead-free construction makes this a clean-burning round that's also environmentally responsible, and it's suitable for indoor ranges that restrict lead ammunition.

Each box contains 20 rounds, and bulk cases are available for shooters who want to maintain a ready supply. This is the ammunition to trust when you need to know your handgun will perform.
