Hornady Custom ammunition in .40 S&W (brand part no. 9132) is built to perform equally well on a home-defense nightstand or a hunting trip. Hornady backs this load with the quality control shooters expect from a name they already trust. At the heart of this load is the 155 gr bullet with a xtp design, matched to the .40 S&W platform shooters already run. In our handgun ammunition lineup, this is the Hornady load built for that job.
