Barnes M/LE TAC-XP Pistol Bullets .40 cal .400" 155 gr FB HP 40/ct
$41.24
The Barnes M/LE TAC-XP pistol bullets for .40 caliber are purpose-built for defensive shooters and tactical applications where barrier performance and reliability matter. Loaded at 155 grains with a flat-base hollow-point design, these all-copper bullets deliver consistent expansion and weight retention through common obstacles—windshield glass, plywood, and vehicle doors—so your shot performs the same whether you train at the range or face real-world scenarios. Barnes engineered them to shoot straight and true, and their lead-free construction meets strict environmental standards without compromise on performance.
What sets these rounds apart is their solid copper construction. Unlike traditional jacketed bullets with lead cores, Barnes TAC-XP rounds are homogeneous copper through and through. That means no lead separation, no unpredictable fragmentation, and no environmental cleanup concerns at indoor ranges or training facilities. If you're a reloader working up ammunition for defensive carry or duty use, you get a bullet that performs when it counts and aligns with modern range safety practices.
Reloaders and shooters who demand barrier-blind performance—whether for personal defense or tactical training—trust Barnes M/LE TAC-XP bullets. The flat-base hollow-point design feeds reliably through semi-automatic pistols, and the controlled expansion profile is proven through multiple obstacle tests. Per box of 40, these bullets are ready to load into your preferred brass and powder combination.
