Description

Underwood Hunting & Self Defense 9mm Luger +P 90gr ammunition (brand part no. 876) pushes a lightweight, all-copper bullet to 1475 fps for shooters who want speed and expansion potential from a compact 9mm platform. Underwood machines this bullet from solid copper with no lead core, so the load stays legal in jurisdictions that restrict traditional lead projectiles. Loaded to +P pressure in nickel-plated brass, this 9mm round trades bullet weight for velocity, generating 435 ft-lbs of muzzle energy from a 90-grain projectile. Underwood positions this load for both hunting and personal defense, where speed and a lead-free bullet both matter.
