Fiocchi Hyperformance Handgun Hunting Ammo ($TBD)

Many of the On Target staff writers are handgun hunters, especially when venturing into the dense cover of our own back forty. We reside in a very steep, mountainous region where shots are relatively close, and utilizing both hands to traverse steep granite ledges prolongs life here. As such, a red dot-equipped pistol or revolver is snatched as we walk out the door far more often than a lightweight rifle.

We’ve had pet favorite loads, but Fiocchi’s newest addition to the Hyperformance Hunt lineup has caught our attention. The Handgun Hunting and Wilderness Defense ammunition utilizes the venerable Barnes XPB, an all-copper hollow point projectile that reliably expands, even after punching through tough skin. This hard-hitting projectile features exceptional weight retention, controlled expansion, and deep penetration and is built specifically for the conditions and demands of the modern handgun hunter. Hyperformance Handgun is currently available in 10mm Auto, .357 Magnum, 44 Magnum, and 45 Colt, although we expect this line to extend as time goes on.
