Winchester USA Ready Defense 40 S&W 170gr HP RED40HP Overview

Winchester USA Ready Defense 40 S&W 170 grain hollow point RED40HP ammo brings Hex-Vent bullet technology to the 40 S&W cartridge. A rigid insert occupies the nose cavity and is designed to help control how the projectile begins opening on impact. The 170-grain weight places this version between more common 165- and 180-grain 40 S&W bullet choices.

Winchester describes the nose insert as a way to protect the cavity against interference by material encountered before the target. Behind that projectile, match-grade primers are part of the USA Ready Defense approach to component consistency. The manufacturer lists this ammunition at 1,170 fps, a load-specific velocity that does not by itself establish an expansion diameter.

Because defensive 40 S&W loads vary in both bullet shape and projectile mass, comparisons are most meaningful when they identify the exact cartridge being tested. Winchester's production-lot reporting provides a second identifier for evaluating factory data. This American-made brass-cased ammo comes in 20-round packages.
