Overview

Built for defensive handgun use, this .40 S&W load is designed around a 165-grain jacketed hollow point profile for controlled terminal performance. SIG’s V-Crown design uses a stacked hollow point cavity and tuned material specifications to support on-target energy transfer, weight retention, and expansion. It is a practical choice for shooters looking for a purpose-driven personal defense round rather than a general-purpose range load. As with any ammunition, it should be matched carefully to the firearm and used in accordance with local laws and safety requirements.
