Lehigh Defense Xtreme Penetrator 9mm 115 Grain Solid Copper Lead-Free Bullets - Box of 100$63.00
Availability: In Stock
Lehigh Defense Xtreme Penetrator 45 ACP solid copper bullets are purpose-built for reloaders who prioritize deep, reliable penetration and barrier-blind performance. Each box contains 100 bullets weighing 135 grains and manufactured from solid copper, making them lead-free and environmentally responsible. The Xtreme Penetrator design uses progressive nose geometry and radial flutes to channel hydraulic energy outward on impact, creating a permanent wound cavity significantly larger than traditional round or flat-nose bullets while maintaining straight-line trajectory through common barriers like drywall or heavy clothing.
Unlike conventional hollow points that can deform or deflect when hitting intermediate barriers, the Xtreme Penetrator's solid copper construction and geometry remain consistent regardless of what the bullet encounters before reaching soft tissue. This barrier-blind characteristic makes it a genuine self-defense load for the reloader—you get the terminal performance you planned for, not a degraded version. The fluid transfer design generates rapid cavitation and tissue damage away from the projectile path, delivering wound cavities that rival or exceed most factory self-defense ammunition.
Handloaders building 45 ACP self-defense or duty rounds will appreciate the consistency of solid copper bullets and the ballistic predictability of a monolithic design. At 135 grains, this weight is standard for 45 ACP performance and recoil management. Whether you're loading for a 1911, modern polymer frame, or competition gun, these bullets deliver the penetration depth and wound dynamics that serious shooters demand.
| Caliber | 45 ACP |
| Bullet Weight | 135 Grains |
| Material | Solid Copper (Lead-Free) |
| Quantity Per Box | 100 Bullets |
| Design Type | Xtreme Penetrator Monolithic |
Yes. The Xtreme Penetrator is specifically engineered for self-defense applications. The solid copper monolithic design with progressive nose geometry is intended to deliver controlled penetration (approximately 18 inches) and expanded wound cavity characteristics suitable for defensive shooting. Always consult your handloading manual for safe load data and follow all applicable local and state laws regarding ammunition construction.
No—that's a core advantage of the Xtreme Penetrator design. Unlike hollow points that can clog or deform when hitting intermediate barriers, the solid copper construction and nose geometry maintain integrity and trajectory. You get consistent terminal performance whether or not the bullet encounters intermediate material before reaching soft tissue.
Each box contains 100 Lehigh Defense Xtreme Penetrator 45 ACP bullets ready for handloading into your choice of brass and powder.
Yes. These bullets are manufactured from solid copper, making them lead-free and suitable for use in ranges and areas where lead ammunition is restricted.
