40 Cal Bullets

Berry's bullets have earned a reputation for being affordable and consistent. These 40 S&W projectiles are 180 grains, copper-plated, Round Shoulder Double Struck (RSDS) and are a great choice for reliable range loads. Each projectile is swaged and plated to its final weight, then each bullet is re-struck to ensure consistent sizing and plating. These bullets will not foul your barrel like traditional cast lead projectiles and are more affordable than jacketed bullets.

Widener's also offers a wide selections of primers, brass and powders to help you make the perfect load.

Note: Plated Bullets are not recommended for velocities over 1200 feet-per-second

This is not loaded ammunition. Do not order these component bullets if you don’t have the tools and the knowhow to make your own ammo!

The most reliable ammo is that which you design and manufacture with your own two hands. If you want to keep great self-defense loads in your 10mm or 40 S&W firearm’s magazine, Berry’s provides the solution!

This 0.401” diameter 180 grain projectile is Berry’s own Hybrid Hollow Point. The bullet’s swaged lead core was submerged in an electrically charged chemical bath to create an extremely concentric and completely bonded copper jacket. The bullet was then restruck to ensure it is precisely 0.598" in overall length, and also to create its notched nose cavity. In addition to exceptional weight retention that assures penetration depth of 11” to 13”, the Hybrid Hollow Point delivers reliably wide and rapid expansion.

If you use these bullets to load 40 S&W, Berry’s advises a muzzle velocity between 975 and 1,075 fps. Core separation and accuracy issues can result if you exceed that threshold. Load data for Superior Plated Bullets are available in any manual or on any propellant company’s site.

Berry's bullets have gained a reputation for being reliable and consistent. These 180 grain 40 caliber Flat Point Double Struck (FP-DS) projectiles are swaged and copper-plated to their final weight. Berry's then re-strikes each round to ensure every bullet is evenly plated and 100% symmetrical. These copper plated flat points are more affordable that jacketed projectiles and are better on your barrel than traditional cast lead bullets.

Note: Copper Plated projectiles are not recommended for velocities over 1,200 feet per second.

Widener's also offers quality brass, primers and powders to help you make the perfect bench loads.

These lightweight, 165 grain projectiles from Zero Bullets are great for crafting cartridges in both .40 Smith & Wesson and 10mm Auto. These bullets measure .400 inches in diameter and feature a full metal jacket (FMJ) as well as a truncated cone (TC) shape. FMJ-TC rounds are similar to semi-wadcutters and will make clean, recognizable holes in targets which makes competitive scoring or productive practice that much easier. 165 grains is light for both calibers and quite popular for a number of loads. Zero Bullets is company located in Alabama that is well known for great projectile quality at a low price.

Work up some high velocity .40 S&W and 10mm Auto cartridges with these premium .400 inch diameter projectiles from Zero Bullets. These bullets are jacketed hollow-points (JHPs) and are great for self-defense loads due to their expansion on impact which will open up a wider wound channel and have more efficient terminal effect on target. These bullets weigh in at 165 grains which is lightweight for both calibers and can be utilized for lower recoil practice loads with the proper data. Zero Bullets is an Alabama-based manufacturer that takes pride in their quality and offers great projectiles at low cost. Zero Bullets pre-segments the crown of their JHPs for more reliable expansion at a variety of distances and impact velocities.

Save some cash when you create your own 10mm and .40 S&W rounds for practice and matches. These projectiles from Zero Bullets use proper copper jackets in a full metal jacket truncated cone (FMJ-TC) shape. Truncated cone style bullets are similar to a semi-wadcutter with a sloping ogive and flat nose which leaves nice clean holes in targets for clean scoring and group measurement. These bullets weigh 180 grains which is ideal for many recipes of both calibers. Zero Bullets is an Alabama manufacturer that has a great reputation for offering consistent projectiles at a low cost.

This is not loaded ammunition. You cannot fire these components bullets right out of the box. You have to load them first, just like you have to cook a Thanksgiving turkey before you can eat it.

Are you loading your own 40 S&W self-defense loads? Are you loading your own 10mm hunting loads? Or are you just trying to create the most accurate .40 cal cartridges possible? It all starts with the Hornady eXtreme Terminal Performance.

When you load these 0.400” diameter 200 grain bullets, you get to appreciate just how many features Hornady is able to pack into a single drawn gilding metal jacket. The XTP’s protective jacket doesn’t let its swaged lead core touch the feed ramp, and it also keeps the nose cavity’s rim from deforming during initial impact. That preserves the jacketed hollow point’s ability to produce wide terminal expansion. The XTP’s jacket is notched, and it becomes increasingly thinner the closer it gets to the rim – two features which also promote more reliable expansion. Its core uniformity and jacket concentricity also give the XTP awesome accuracy. You will not be misusing these bullets if you only load them in match rounds!

Hornady is one of America’s most respected bullet manufacturers. Uniform in weight and dimensions, their XTP represents the old Nebraskan company’s very best work!
