Fiocchi Hyperformance 4.6x30mm ammunition (part no. 46EXD) loads a 38-grain Tipped Hollow Point bullet in the compact, bottle-necked cartridge built for personal-defense carbines and PDWs. Fiocchi engineers the Hyperformance line for high velocity and low recoil, a combination that keeps this proprietary round flat-shooting and easy to control. The bottle-necked case design feeds reliably, and the tipped hollow point is built to expand on impact for genuine terminal performance rather than just a fast number on the box. Elite military units and premier law enforcement agencies have fielded this exact cartridge, and it remains one of the few dedicated personal-defense-carbine rounds available to civilian shooters. Among rifle ammunition options, this is the load that put 4.6x30mm on the map.
