PMC StarFire is a defensive hollow point with a distinctive fluted cavity, and a single 50 round box is a good way to try it in your pistol. This listing is PMC StarFire 9mm Luger 124 grain SFX jacketed hollow point ammo, MPN 9SFX, sold as one 50 round box.
PMC rates this load at 1,201 fps with 397 ft-lbs of muzzle energy. The StarFire bullet has ribs inside its hollow point cavity that are designed to help it open in a consistent star-shaped pattern on impact, transferring energy quickly while holding together for penetration. The 124 grain weight is a popular defensive choice in 9mm, balancing velocity, penetration, and recoil. A 50 round box gives you enough to function test your pistol with the actual carry load, confirm point of impact, and still load your magazines.
This ammunition fits any firearm chambered in 9mm Luger, also called 9x19mm or 9mm Parabellum, including the Glock 19, 26, 43X, and 48, SIG P365 and P320, Smith and Wesson M&P9 and Shield Plus, Springfield Hellcat, Ruger Max-9, CZ P-10, and Walther PDP. A common question is how many rounds of a defensive load you should test. Many instructors suggest at least 50 to 100 rounds through your specific pistol without a malfunction before you carry it. Another common question is whether this is +P. PMC loads StarFire 9mm to standard pressure, so it is suitable for any 9mm pistol in good condition. Always check local laws and your own needs when selecting defensive ammunition.
PMC 9SFX is new production ammunition, not reloads, loaded in South Korea. Each round uses a reloadable brass case with a boxer primer and is non-corrosive. This listing ships as one box of 50 rounds of 9mm 124 grain StarFire JHP. Rotating carry ammo every 6 to 12 months and shooting the old rounds at the range keeps your carry supply fresh.

These worked great in my Springfield Echelon 4.0C. Fired all 100 rounds with absolutely no issues.

If your shooting this ammo out of a full size your in luck. It seems to function adequately in my gel tests. But if you plan on using a compact ( 3.25 inch barrel or smaller ) stick with the HST’s. These at lower velocities of which you get with compacts don’t expand consistently and over penetrate. And HST’s aren’t that much more, what’s your life worth?
