The search for the best defensive round is never-ending.
But the question is, what do we want from a defensive cartridge?
Basically, effective penetration, expansion and weight retention.
The 9mm MHP Solution
Well, out comes the new Norma MHP, or Monolithic Hollow Point.
The Norma MHP is a solid copper projectile that claims to do all the things we always wanted.
Our own Eric Conn discusses this in hisAnatomy of a Bullet article.
But, does it work?
There is only one certain way to find out: test it.
That means the Norma 9mm MHP needed to be shot intoballistic gelto measure expansion and penetration.
I ended up shooting nine rounds into the Clear Ballistics Gelatin.
This is one round that shouldnt be underestimated!
I wouldnt want to be on the receiving end of this projectile.
