Designed for law enforcement and personal defense, the OPS (One Precise Shot) rounds from Ammo Incorporated feature a hollow-point frangible HPF projectile made to transfer 100% of its energy into the target so the rounds can track straight through soft barriers like drywall and auto glass. Upon entering soft tissue, the jacket and core separate with furious force of impact, resulting in mass force trauma, according to the company.
Black Hills Ammunition

The modernized sniper load combines the proven MatchKing accuracy with improved terminal effect and limited penetration to minimize danger to entry and perimeter teams and reduce your team's liability.

Speer Gold Dot ammunition now includes 10mm Auto ammunition for self-defense made to provide the same performance as its law enforcement counterpart. Gold Dot's 200-grain bullet is loaded for optimal performance from the cartridge, according to the company. Like all Gold Dot loads, its bullet is built using Speer's exclusive Uni-Cor method. The jacket is bonded to the core one molecule at a time to virtually eliminate core-jacket separation and create a precision hollow point.
