The Sig Sauer Elite Defense .40 S&W 180 gr V-Crown JHP is a purpose-built defensive round engineered for controlled expansion and reliable performance when it matters most. This 20-round box delivers Sig's proven V-Crown hollow point design—a load favored by shooters who demand consistent, predictable terminal performance from their defensive ammunition. The 180-grain bullet weight is a balanced choice for .40 S&W, offering a blend of velocity and energy suited to medium-range defensive scenarios.

At the heart of the V-Crown design is a stacked hollow point cavity—a primary hollow point backed by a secondary cavity behind it. This geometry, combined with V-shaped jacket skives and scores, promotes controlled and uniform bullet expansion across the range of velocities and distances you're likely to encounter in a defensive situation. The focus here is reliability: uniform expansion means more predictable wound channels and better energy transfer, not marketing hyperbole.

Sig pairs this bullet design with TECHNI-CROM coated brass cases, a finish that improves case lubricity, boosts corrosion resistance, and promotes smooth feeding and extraction through your firearm's magazine and chamber. That attention to the whole round—bullet and case together—reflects Sig's defensive ammunition philosophy: nothing left to chance. Whether you're training with your duty load or carrying it daily, Elite Defense rounds are built to perform when called upon.
