Browning X-Point Defense Ammo Blocks Hollow Point Obstructions

Browning, a name steeped in hunting tradition, continues its push into defensive shooting. First the company expanded into 1911 pistols chambered in .380 Auto. Now it offers a full line of defensive ammunition, dubbed X-Point Defense.

Browning X-Point Defense Ammo

Each X-Point Defense round comes equipped with Browning’s new X-Point technology. The process guards the formed metallic hollow point from becoming obstructed. The resulting formed metallic hollow point offers consistency, toughness and reliability, according to Browning.

The most recognizable feature to the new ammo will be the X-Point itself. The bullet contains an “X” shape shield in the nose. That “X” guards against those obstructions which can rob a bullet of its designed performance. When clogged with material upon impact, bullets don’t expand and transfer energy properly. The X-Point helps solve those issues.

Each bullet comes loaded in a nickel-plated brass shellcase for repeatable, reliable functioning through a wide range of semi-auto pistols.
