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.

    Earlier this year a friend and I had done .380 tests on several different mediums. I had always considered the caliber as a light weight but with it's popularity soaring thought a review was needed. We decided after a day of shooting only FMJ loads provided adequate penetration for a defense round. I came across your bullets in an article and thought they should get a look. After all it was an FMJ type bullet with a little more pizazzz. What do I think now.........That it is the ONLY .380 bullet to carry in a defensive handgun. With the .357 loads I always like to have a speedloader with FMJ,Softpoints or hardcast SWC as a backup reload. I can think of numerous events where penetration would be desirable. As my favorite .357mag. loads consist of 140gr. JHPbullets. Your product is perfect for shooting to same point of aim. The only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is that thankfully I have not needed to test it in real life.
