Newly designed defense cartridge now available

5/17/2023 Lewiston, Idaho Freedom Munitions continues to expand the successful X-DEF defense line with the addition of the 38 Special caliber.

Freedom’s X-DEF 38 Special hollow point ammunition, like all X-DEF products, has been designed from the ground up by Freedom Munitions with optimum penetration and weight retention in mind. X-DEF ammunition is intended for personal protection and rigorously tested to ensure utmost performance. This cartridge utilizes a brass case with X-Treme Bullets’ copper plated, 158 grain X-DEF hollow point expanding bullet and is loaded with premium, low-flash powder.

Thoroughly tested in Freedom Munitions’ own underground ballistics lab, the 158 grain projectile travels at a velocity of 925 fps with a 6” barrel and penetrates 13”-15” in clear ballistic gelatin.

“Due to its quality and accuracy, X-DEF has been a very popular product line for us. We intend to continually grow it by adding every pertinent defense caliber, giving our customers a solid selection when choosing their defense ammo,” said Toby Thill, President of Freedom Munitions.

Earlier in 2023, Freedom Munitions released 357 Mag X-DEF in two weights and also a 200 grain 10MM X-DEF round.

X-DEF 38 Special is available now in 50 count at www.freedommunitions.com.
