The Lehigh Defense Xtreme Defense 9mm 118gr Bullets (Lehigh Defense part no. 09355118LP) is a 118gr 9mm lead-free projectile from Lehigh Defense’s Xtreme Defense line. Xtreme Defense (XD FTM) uses a Fluid Transfer Monolithic design: a progressive nose geometry drives deep, straight penetration and a permanent wound cavity larger than most expanding bullets, and because it’s solid copper it isn’t thrown off its path by barriers like heavy clothing. Each box holds 50 bullets, enough 9mm projectiles to develop and confirm a load before a production run. It’s a good fit for defensive handgun reloaders who want reliable penetration through common barriers.
