Hornady American Gunner 9mm Luger 115gr XTP is a versatile, high-quality handgun ammunition that blends legendary Hornady performance with exceptional value, making it an excellent choice for self-defense, target shooting, and everyday carry.Part of Hornady's American Gunner® line, this load features the proven 115-grain XTP® (eXtreme Terminal Performance) jacketed hollow point bullet — a design trusted for decades by competitive shooters, law enforcement, and defensive users alike. The XTP delivers controlled expansion, deep penetration, and reliable terminal performance across a wide range of velocities, thanks to its aggressive hollow point cavity, precise serrations, and tapered jacket that prevents over-expansion while driving energy deep into the target.Loaded to standard pressure (not +P) with a muzzle velocity of 1,155 fps (from a 4" test barrel) and 341 ft-lbs of muzzle energy, this ammunition offers smooth recoil, excellent accuracy, and flawless feeding in both full-size and compact 9mm pistols. It uses premium brass cases, reliable primers, and carefully matched propellants for consistent lot-to-lot performance — all proudly made in the USA.Shooters appreciate the American Gunner series for its balance of proven ballistics and affordability, allowing more range time while maintaining confidence in a defensive load. The XTP bullet is known for deep, consistent penetration (often favored in ballistic testing) and reliable expansion without the polymer tip found in pricier lines like Critical Defense.
