PLEASE NOTE: BERRY’S DOES NOT SELL LOADED AMMUNITION
Loaded up my first batch of these 185 grn FN and really like them. They feed just fine in all my guns and have amazing accuracy, ragged holes at 7 & 15 yds. Only reloading note, I had to seat…з>
Getting ready to order my 2nd batch. These are great in my AK47, they are perfect for plinking and my rifle likes them. No cycle issues and having used more expensive bullets before seeing these, I can honestly say that…з>
I started out using the 1250 fps rated bullet and fired hundreds of rounds from my 1911 & SA-35s. I upgraded to the thick plate when I bought a PCC. The accuracy and fun factors are above reproach. Thousands of…з>
The right hollow point bullet can make all the difference in a self defense situation. Berry’s Bullets offers a superior line of hybrid hollow point bullets designed for personal protection. Our defensive bullets deliver the right balance of penetration, expansion, and energy transfer for effective threat stopping.
Berry’s Hybrid Hollow Points are available in five calibers:
Hollow point bullet design has evolved steadily over more than a century. Originally, bullets were simple lead balls. They were effective but lacked precision and control upon impact.
As firearms technology advanced, so did bullet design. The expanding bullet was developed in the late 19th century.his marked a significant shift in how self defense ammunition performed on the intended target.
The hollow point bullet expanded upon impact and created a larger wound channel. It increased stopping power while reducing the risk of over-penetration and collateral damage. Law enforcement agencies in the United States quickly adopted hollow point ammunition for these advantages. Manufacturers have continued refining the design ever since.
This innovation revolutionized self-defense ammunition by providing bullets that could expand upon impact, creating a larger wound channel for increased stopping power while minimizing the risk of over-penetration. Law enforcement agencies quickly adopted these advancements for their superior capabilities. Over the years, manufacturers like Berry’s have refined and perfected the hollow point design, incorporating advanced materials and precise engineering to create hollow point bullets that offer unmatched performance in self-defense situations.
Hollow point bullets are meticulously designed to expand upon striking soft tissue. This expansion significantly increases the wound channel while simultaneously ensuring that the bullet disrupts vital organs effectively, a crucial factor in self-defense situations. The effectiveness of using hollow points lies in their ability to stop a threat decisively with minimal risk of over-penetration, thereby drastically reducing the likelihood of collateral damage.
Ballistic gelatin testing consistently demonstrates that properly designed hollow point bullets deliver better results than traditional bullet designs. Unlike solid bullets, hollow points transfer more of their energy into the target, creating more effective stopping power—exactly what you need when facing a threat to your safety.
Hollow point bullets are designed to expand upon striking soft tissue. That expansion increases the wound channel and disrupts vital organs more effectively than a standard bullet. The result is better stopping power with a lower risk of over-penetration.
Ballistic gelatin testing shows that hollow point bullets transfer more energy into the intended target than traditional bullet designs. This makes them more effective in close quarters and real-world self defense situations.
Traditional jacketed hollow point bullets have been the standard for decades. Berry’s Hybrid Hollow Points take that foundation further. Each bullet starts with a precision-swaged lead core. The core is then electroplated with copper rather than fitted with a mechanical jacket. This process delivers several performance advantages over standard HP bullets.
What sets Berry’s Hybrid Hollow Points apart:
Law enforcement agencies increasingly rely on hybrid designs for their performance in self defense situations.
Berry’s Hybrid Hollow Points begin with a swaged lead core. Swaging promotes uniformity and consistency across every bullet. The lead core is then electroplated with copper, the same process used in Berry’s Superior Plated Bullets.
After electroplating, each bullet is re-struck to achieve precise dimensions and weight. This step sets Berry’s apart from standard hollow point ammunition loaded with lesser components. Our hollow point bullets have been refined through ballistic gelatin testing to deliver the stopping power needed in a self defense situation. Berry’s HP bullets achieve 11 to 13 inches of penetration depth in ballistic gelatin testing, the same standard used by law enforcement agencies across the United States.
Berry’s hollow point bullets perform well beyond self defense situations. Their design creates clean, visible holes in paper targets. This makes them a practical choice for competitive shooting and practice sessions.
When loaded into a pistol or handgun, these bullets offer manageable recoil. Shooters can train comfortably for extended sessions using the same bullet they carry for personal protection.
Berry’s Bullets are engineered for personal protection with no shortcuts in materials or manufacturing.
When personal protection matters, trust Berry’s Hybrid Hollow Points for reliable expansion, deep penetration, and consistent performance in any self defense situation.
