PPU Defense Line ammunition (brand part no. PPD9M) is a 9×18 Makarov defensive load built for shooters carrying a Makarov-pattern pistol. PPU loads a 95-grain jacketed hollow point using its proprietary bullet design, built to maximize expansion while maintaining bullet density for reliable stopping power. The brass-cased load gives shooters a dependable defensive option in a caliber that’s otherwise thin on modern self-defense choices. Among handgun ammunition, this Defense Line load favors 9×18 Makarov owners who want a genuine defensive round rather than surplus ball ammo.
