Sig Sauer Elite Defense .40 S&W 165gr V-Crown JHP Ammo - 50 Rounds per Box

The Sig Sauer Elite Defense .40 S&W 165gr V-Crown JHP is a purpose-built defensive handgun round engineered for reliable performance when it matters most. This 50-round box delivers the stopping power and consistency that serious shooters demand from their carry ammunition, combining proven bullet design with quality brass construction to perform reliably across a range of firearms and shooting conditions.

At the heart of this round is Sig's V-Crown hollow point, a sophisticated cavity design that pairs a main hollow point with a stacked secondary cavity behind it. This dual-cavity geometry, combined with V-shaped jacket skives and scores, is designed to produce controlled and uniform expansion across all practical defensive distances and velocities. The result is consistent on-target energy delivery with maximum weight retention—exactly what you need from a self-defense load.

The brass cases feature TECHNI-CROM coating, a proprietary treatment that enhances lubricity and provides superior corrosion resistance. If you shoot regularly or store ammo for extended periods, this coating helps ensure reliable feeding and extraction, round after round. Whether you're testing your carry setup at the range, training regularly, or keeping a loaded magazine at home, Sig Sauer Elite Defense ammunition delivers the engineering and quality control that separates defensive rounds from general-purpose target loads.
