Liberty Ammunition?s deep cavity hollow-point projectile is designed to fragment in soft tissue resulting in a much greater transfer of kinetic energy to the target while providing three times the terminal effects of traditional lead-based ammo in comparable calibers. Due to the proprietary design of the projectile and its solid copper construction Civil Defense ammunition also provides exceptional performance on hard targets such as drywall car doors auto glass and leather/denim without sacrificing any performance in soft tissue.

Used in a Glock 40, 6”barrel, longslide. Recoil was more like a full size G17 9mm. Very easy to control. Using a red dot at 7m, all shots within 4” radius, first time firing. Super fast round, the targets looked like Ive never seen before. Rather than the standard, charcoal dark rimmed holes w slight tearing, the target paper looked like it had been punched out almost perfectly w a hole punch. Minute tearing at edges, but no paper deformity. Makes me interested in seeing results in ballistic gel. Overall all worth the cost for the accuracy, and at over 2000fps, very curious to figure out if this would do similar penetration compared to hard cast rounds.

I bought a couple of boxes of this ammo to try out in my Glock 29. The recoil is very mild. Velocities on chronograph are over the stated 2400 FPS. Keep in mind that I shooting this out of a subcompact. So my guess is that if you shot this ammo out of a full size framed pistol, you would probably be pushing even higher velocity. Penetration is about 16 3/4” into a block of ballistic gel with about a 3” wound cavity. This is fired from a range of about 3 meters away. The bullet is made out of aluminum. What I ended up finding was that the hollow point shatters on impact, sending shards of metal throughout the wound channel while still maintaining the flat core of the mushroom hollow point. I would definitely recommend this round as a self defense round for a person who is just wanting an everyday carry load for their 10mm.

Excellent ammo. I used it in a Kimber 1911 and ran flawlessly. If you plan on carrying 10mm and want to save some weight this is the best option. It will also shoot flatter with less recoil. Its a win win.

This was a very impressive round that I picked up. Haven’t had to put em to use but they put a hurting on the range.

The reason i wrote this review was it does what it says. Everyone else's review were absolutely correct. It is lighter and ballistic gel test will tell you of the damage and wound cavities. But you wanna know about 3A armor tests. I bought a new vest because my old was old. Me and my buddy went to a private range and I used a 5 gallon bucket with an old 3A plate, and my brand new Glock 20 Gen 5. We tried Blazer 180 gr FMJ, Underwood 115 gr solid monolith, and Liberty Ammo 60 gr hollow point. First, Blazer, third, Underwood. Both were able to stop a round. But the second round, i went through the plate and punched a hole through the 5 gallon bucket full of water. I thought for sure it was just an old plate, I will use another old plate. I used three shots with Liberty ammo. It punched all three rounds though the plate, no f***ing problem. I puched 2 more rounds, same thing. I was SO impressed. I thought for sure the pistol round that could defeat a vest would be 5.7×28 lead free rounds. I was SO WRONG! The 5.7 rounds are a pretty small round, between 27-40 grain. The hole from the bucket was pretty large. I really wanna see if the Liberty 70 grain will perform the same target. I have 2 old side panels, and will try those.So two things about 10mm firearms and ammo: 1) You can take out a bear pretty easy. 2) You can take out a 3A vest pretty easy. My Glock 20 is my new carry gun instead of my PSA Rock.
