.400 diameter, 140 grain Xtreme Penetrator Bullets (100 count)
SKU: 07400140SPFC
Lehigh Defense
The progressive nose geometry of this bullet allows for deep, straight penetration while creating a permanent wound cavity diameter exceeding that of most expanding bullets. This bullet is optimal for use in .357 Magnum and .38 Special loads.
Please note that these are bullets (projectiles) only for reloading. This product is not loaded ammunition that is ready to use in a firearm.
‘ULTIMATE BULLET PERFORMANCE’ is the driving force behind Lehigh Defense to create new products, redefine terminal performance and to deploy modern manufacturing processes. This mantra has led us to introduce a unique and innovative product, the Xtreme Penetrator Fluid Transfer Monolithic (XP FTM) product line, for both handgun and rifles. The progressive nose geometry allows for deep, straight penetration while creating a permanent wound cavity diameter exceeding that of most expanding bullets. To top it off, the bullet is solid copper and is able to overcome barriers to penetration, is environmentally friendly and VERY target unfriendly. Penetrating barriers such as drywall or heavy clothing prior to impacting the intended target doesn’t have the potentially negative effect on the Xtreme Defense that it does to conventional hollow point bullets.
The magic happens with the nose design where the Fluid Transfer’s radial flutes force the hydraulic energy inward and then as the energy is restricted, it accelerates outward creating high pressure spikes severely damaging surrounding tissue. This very rapid increase in fluid flow creates cavitation and massive tissue damage away from the projectile equivalent to those of the best hollow points on the market. This results in a permanent wound cavity that is two to four times greater than what a flat or round nose bullet generates and often larger than traditional or solid copper expanding bullets. What you get is a hunting or special application self defense bullet that creates a larger permanent wound cavity coupled with exceptionally deep penetration.
The Xtreme Penetrator is the bullet of choice for hunting large, tough and often dangerous game due to the fluid transfer and deep straight line penetration.
Xtreme Penetrator bullets are currently available in the following diameters: .355, .357, .364, .400, .429, .452, .458, .475 and .500.
Solid copper Xtreme Penetrator bullets meet the criteria of states and jurisdictions calling for lead free projectiles.
I purchased these rounds to try in a Henry's lever action 357. I have other Henry's in different calibers but saw this as an opportunity to get the maximum benefit of the 357 round. In addition I carry a Ruger GP100 as well for back country protection. My question: Have others used the extreme penetrator as a protective bear load. I currently carry Buffalo Bore 190gr; packs a walup but you lose the benefit traveling down a 20" barrel before exit. Appreciate the insight. Thanks. its Don byw
I loaded the subject bullets in .357 cases over 16.2 Gr. H-4227 fornuse
XP 140 gr
Just loaded some will be testing them next week. Loaded well and looked very good.
The bullets work as advertised. I've been very pleased with the accuracy and penetration. My only complaint is the difficulty finding load data. Being a solid copper bullet the data available has not matched this bullet.
If you reload, buy these bullets As described and would work well
Very pleased with the preformence.
Awesome results through my lever rifle.
The 38 cal. Xtreme Penetrator 140gr. Shot very accurate from the 3" 38 Spl. barrel .
