Defense | 9mm | 65gr | NXD

The newly launched 9mm Norma NXD - or “Non-eXpanding Defensive” ammunition - features a 65 grain, injection-molded copper-polymer matrix projectile with a patent-pending fluted design to efficiently achieve unmatched terminal performance. This helps to produce a lighter recoil and faster more accurate follow-up shots.
The Norma NXD’s extreme terminal performance on-target is achieved with the help of its proprietary fluted projectile design. This technology produces a devastating energy transfer by initiating a powerful hydrodynamic ram effect upon impact with soft tissue. This, coupled with what is known as the “Venturi effect” results in a predictable, powerful energy transfer every time.
Because of the unique technology utilized in the Norma NXD design, it does not need to rely on the expansion and mushrooming that’s required to make a typical hollow point an effective defensive round.
Designed specifically as a personal defense cartridge, penetration is optimized within soft targets, eliminating concerns of overpenetration or collateral damage.

KEY FEATURES:

• Proprietary fluted projectile design creates enhanced terminal performance
• Injection molded copper/polymer matrix for a lightweight projectile with higher speeds and lower recoil
• Excellent feeding based on the FMJ profile
