Double Tap Ammunition‘s Bonded Defense 10mm 180-grain Jacketed Hollow Point load (brand part no. 10MM180BD20) is built for shooters who carry a 10mm for serious personal protection or backcountry defense. The bonded construction fuses the jacket to the lead core, so the bullet resists separating as it punches through heavy clothing and expands with controlled, reliable petals instead of shedding weight early. Double Tap engineers this load specifically for deep penetration paired with dependable expansion, the combination defensive shooters look for when a barrier could stand between them and a threat. Whether it rides in a duty holster or a woods-carry rig, this 10mm load is built to perform on the first shot.
