The Underwood Xtreme Defender .380 ACP (+P) steps up the performance of this compact caliber with a solid copper, lead-free projectile built for consistent penetration and terminal effectiveness. Loaded to +P pressure, this ammunition generates 1,400 feet per second muzzle velocity and 296 foot-pounds of energy, making it one of the more powerful options available in .380 ACP.
Unlike traditional hollow points, this round uses Lehigh Defense's Xtreme Defender projectile, a monolithic solid copper bullet with precision-cut radial flutes. These flutes compress upon impact and force fluid inward to generate hydraulic energy, creating a large permanent wound cavity without relying on expansion to work. This means the projectile performs consistently even after passing through clothing, barriers, or glass that might clog conventional hollow points.
The 68-grain bullet weight and fast velocity make this load perform well from the short barrels common in modern pocket pistols. Underwood uses flash-suppressed powder throughout their lineup, reducing muzzle flash in low-light defensive situations so your vision stays intact. The ammunition comes in nickel-plated brass cases with boxer primers, making it reloadable if you're into handloading.
This isn't target ammo or range fodder. It's built from the ground up for defensive use and hunting applications. The monolithic copper construction is lead-free, appealing to shooters concerned about environmental impact or range lead exposure. Because the pressure is elevated, make sure your firearm is rated for +P ammunition before loading it.
No, this ammunition is loaded to +P pressure and should only be used in handguns specifically rated for +P ammunition. Check your firearm's manual or contact the manufacturer to confirm compatibility. Using +P ammunition in firearms not rated for it can cause premature wear and potential damage.
The solid copper projectile with radial flutes uses hydraulic energy transfer instead of expansion to create terminal performance. This design actually maintains full weight retention and creates a large wound cavity without the risk of clogging that can happen with hollow points when passing through barriers.
The solid copper fluted design is engineered for consistent performance in real-world defensive scenarios. It penetrates effectively and creates significant tissue damage without relying on expansion. Many defensive-minded shooters choose it for its barrier-blind performance and reliability across different situations.
Yes, the nickel-plated brass cases with boxer primers are reloadable. The cases are durable and corrosion-resistant, making them suitable for multiple reloading cycles if you're into hand-loading ammunition.
