The LACD38025 from Liberty Ammunition is an innovative installment from the Civil Defense series. It\'s constructed with a primary goal - to provide superior stopping power, or kinetic energy, along with increased terminal effect or lethality, compared to other handgun ammo on the market. Designed for personal defense, these rounds proudly embrace an eco-friendly approach with a lead-free composition.Each round features a thoroughly fragmenting, monolithic projectile, made of nickel-plated copper. It also incorporates a deep hollow point, all encased in a slick, nickel-plated brass cartridge. The speed of the Civil Defense rounds sets them distinctly apart. They can reach approximately double the velocity of traditional lead-based ammunition, contributing to a kinetic energy transfer that exceeds other leading brands by 30-40%.
