9mm – 124 gr FMJ – Remington UMC (23718 L9MM2) – 500 Rounds

Remington UMC L9MM2 is the 124 grain version of Remington’s long-running 9mm range ammo, a good fit for shooters who practice with the same bullet weight they carry. This listing is Remington UMC 9mm Luger 124 grain full metal jacket ammo, MPN 23718 (Remington L9MM2), sold as a 500 round case.

Remington rates this load at 1,110 fps with 339 ft-lbs of muzzle energy. The 124 grain FMJ bullet is the NATO-standard 9mm weight. It moves a little slower than 115 grain bullets, which many shooters feel as a softer push, and it closely matches popular 124 grain defensive hollow points such as Federal HST and Speer Gold Dot. A full metal jacket bullet does not expand, so this ammunition is built for practice, steel, and qualification courses rather than self defense or hunting.

This ammunition fits any firearm chambered in 9mm Luger, also called 9x19mm or 9mm Parabellum, including the Glock 17, 19, 45, and 47, the SIG P320 and P226, Smith and Wesson M&P9, Beretta 92 and M9A3, CZ 75 and Shadow 2, HK VP9, Walther PDP, and carbines such as the Ruger PC Carbine. A common question is what UMC means. It comes from the Union Metallic Cartridge Company, which merged with Remington in the early 1900s, and Remington now uses the name for its range and training ammunition. Another common question is whether L9MM2 and 23718 are different products. They are the same load. Remington uses both an older letter code and a newer item number.

Remington 23718 is new production ammunition, not reloads, made in the USA. Each round uses a reloadable brass case with a boxer primer and is non-corrosive. This case comes in factory packaging as 10 boxes of 50 rounds for a total of 500 rounds of 9mm 124 grain FMJ. Buying by the case keeps you on one production lot for consistent function.
