LEHIGH DEFENSE - 10MM - 115 GR - FTM - 20 RDS/BOX
The Lehigh Defense 10mm 115 Grain Fluid Transfer Monolithic (FTM) — Xtreme Defense delivers elite terminal performance through a solid copper design engineered to maximize permanent wound cavity and penetration depth in a single, reliable projectile.
- Solid copper Xtreme Defense bullet creates massive, permanent wound cavities
- Deep, straight-line penetration exceeds most traditional expanding hollow points
- Screaming 1,700 fps muzzle velocity from a 5-inch barrel
- Generates 738 ft-lbs of muzzle energy for decisive terminal effect
- Supersonic flight with brass-cased, reloadable construction for consistency
- Lead-free, solid copper design resists deformation through barriers
Who This Is For
This load is purpose-built for serious self-defense shooters, hunters pursuing medium-size game, and 10mm enthusiasts who demand proven terminal performance without relying on expansion. It is an especially strong choice for those carrying full-size or long-slide 10mm pistols where the 5-inch barrel fully realizes the round's velocity potential, and for shooters in environments where barrier penetration or pass-through performance is a priority.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Xtreme Defense bullet create a wound cavity without expanding?
Instead of relying on traditional petal expansion, Lehigh Defense's Fluid Transfer Monolithic (FTM) bullet uses precisely engineered radial flutes machined into the solid copper nose. As the projectile passes through tissue, these flutes hydraulically redirect fluid outward at high velocity, creating a large permanent crush cavity — often wider than what conventional hollow points produce. The bullet then continues on a straight, deep path, delivering reliable penetration regardless of clothing or light barriers.
Will this ammunition cycle reliably in stock 10mm pistols?
Lehigh Defense loads this round to consistent, high-pressure specs designed to function in standard 10mm semi-automatic pistols such as the Glock 20, Glock 40, Colt Delta Elite, and similar platforms. Because the bullet is lighter than traditional 155–180 gr 10mm loads, the higher velocity helps ensure reliable cycling. As with any premium defensive ammunition, it is always recommended to test at least one box through your specific firearm before relying on it for carry.
Is this the right load for hunting with a 10mm pistol?
Yes — the combination of a 1,700 fps muzzle velocity and 738 ft-lbs of energy, paired with deep straight-line penetration, makes this load well-suited for hunting deer, feral hogs, and similarly sized game at appropriate handgun ranges. The solid copper construction also means the bullet will not fragment on impact, maximizing usable penetration depth. Always verify local hunting regulations for bullet construction requirements before use in the field.
