Though these have a lighter load, my wife and daughter like them because of less recoil to control, which provides great accuracy and assured protection when the time comes. For those with smaller hands or those of us who are experiencing "Carpal Tunnel" symptoms in your hand, elbow or even shoulder pain (such as I do), it still allows you to know you can protect yourself with great accuracy and not have a lot of pain in your hands after a day at the range.

I recently purchased a box of these 100 grain 9mm rounds for my wife to keep in her every day carry pistol which is a hellcat. These rounds are perfect for a compact pistol like my wifes hellcat. The reduced recoil from the lighter loads help with faster follow up shots and these ftx rounds pack plenty of stopping power.

This Ammo is light and had one shell that had difficulty ejecting the casing. It got caught in the gun. However, it did hold a good group at 11 yards. When it did eject. Thought they were expensive for what you get.

Perfect ammo for the Equalizer. Makes it feel like an even softer shooting pistol.
