A standard pressure 115 grain hollow point is a sensible defensive option for shooters who want to avoid +P loads in their pistol. This listing is Hornady American Gunner 9mm Luger 115 grain XTP hollow point ammo, MPN 90244, sold as 250 rounds. American Gunner is Hornady’s line for shooters who want proven defensive bullets in a more affordable package for training and carry. Many shooters also keep it in a nightstand pistol for home defense.
Hornady rates 90244 at 1,155 fps with 341 ft-lbs of muzzle energy. The XTP is a jacketed hollow point with a reputation for controlled expansion and deep penetration. At standard pressure, recoil stays mild, which helps with fast follow-up shots and suits smaller pistols and older guns not rated for +P. This is a personal defense load. It also works well for confirming that your pistol feeds hollow points reliably.
It fits pistols and carbines chambered in 9mm Luger, including the Glock 19 and 43X, SIG P365 and P320, Smith and Wesson M&P9 and Shield, Springfield Hellcat, Walther PDP and PPS, Ruger Security-9 and LC9s, Kimber Micro 9, and pistol caliber carbines. A common question is whether standard pressure 9mm hollow points are effective. Yes. Modern standard pressure defensive loads perform well, and many shooters prefer them for control. Another common question is how XTP differs from the +P American Gunner 124 grain. The 124 grain +P is heavier and faster, while this 115 grain load is a lighter, standard pressure option.
Hornady 90244 is new production ammunition, not reloads, made in the USA by Hornady in Grand Island, Nebraska. Cases are reloadable brass with boxer primers, and the load is non-corrosive. This listing ships as 10 boxes of 25 rounds, 250 total, from one lot, so you can verify function in your carry pistol and keep the same rounds loaded every day.
