Frequently Asked Questions
Will this ammunition feed reliably in compact 40 S&W pistols like the Glock 27 or Smith & Wesson M&P Shield?
Yes. The Sellier & Bellot XRG Defense line was specifically engineered to cycle reliably in compact and subcompact pistols. The lighter 130-grain bullet weight generates a snappy but manageable recoil impulse that works well with the shorter barrels and tighter tolerances found in carry-sized handguns. As always, it is recommended to fire a box through your specific firearm before trusting any defensive load for carry.
What makes a solid copper hollow point (SCHP) better than a traditional jacketed hollow point (JHP) for self-defense?
Solid copper hollow points eliminate the lead core separation that can occur with traditional jacketed hollow points when passing through intermediate barriers like clothing or drywall. Because the entire projectile is one piece of copper, weight retention approaches 100%, meaning more energy is transferred to the target rather than lost to fragmentation. The XRG Defense design also features engineered petals that reliably initiate expansion even at the velocities produced by compact handgun barrels.
Is this load appropriate for use at indoor shooting ranges?
The lead-free, solid copper construction of the XRG Defense 130-grain SCHP makes it a considerate choice for indoor ranges that restrict or prohibit lead-core ammunition. However, always verify your specific range's rules regarding hollow point projectiles, as some facilities restrict hollow points regardless of core material. For standard target practice, Sellier & Bellot also offers FMJ loads in 40 S&W at a lower cost per round.
