Description
The Barnes TAC-XPD Defense load in 40 S&W is purpose-built for serious personal-protection and home-defense duty. Designed around a 140-grain all-copper hollow point, this round is engineered to feed reliably, expand consistently, and reduce the risk of dangerous over-penetration through interior walls – making it a smart pick for bedside magazines, duty guns, and concealed-carry pistols chambered in 40 S&W.
The projectile is Barnes’ signature TAC-XP design – a lead-free, all-copper hollow point that retains virtually 100% of its original weight through bare gel. The nickel-plated brass cases deliver smooth, corrosion-resistant feeding with virtually no muzzle flash, and the load pushes a muzzle velocity of 1120 fps producing 394 ft lbs of energy at the muzzle. That combination of controlled expansion, high weight retention, and clean feeding is exactly the profile law-enforcement trainers and home-defense planners rely on.
Whether you are stocking a nightstand magazine, rotating a duty pistol, or simply stepping up from generic FMJ practice ammunition to a premium defensive load, the Barnes TAC-XPD brings proven all-copper engineering to the proven 40 S&W platform.
