  • DoubleTap 9mm Ammo!?

    My interest has been peaked about DoubleTap Bonded Defense +P 124gr. rounds for my CW9. They're incredibly hot loads (1295 fps/462 ft. lbs. out of a G19) with the expansive Gold Dot round (test expansion to .70" in 10% ballistic gelatin) out front to do the dirty work. Anyone have any experience with them? I'm thinking they're gonna kick like a mule on steroids but will be well worth the bruise in the web of my hand.

    Their 135 grain .40 S&W round is not much different from most "fotay" rounds in terms of recoil.
    It would be so nice if something made sense for a change.

      What were you shooting it through?

          Thanks TusconMTB. That really does say something if you didn't think the recoil was too much from a PM40. I can't wait to sling some DoubleTap down range with my CW9.

          PS I'm looking into a P40 or a PM40 as my next purchase. You have any insight as to why you chose the PM over the P? I guess that kind of opens up the whole argument of concealability vs controlability.

          God Bless

              Thanks
              I have used the Doubletap rounds in 45 and 9mm.I dont have a chronograph but they feel more potent than the speer loading.I also had some great acuuracy from the 45 in particular.I was also using full sized guns.
              However at almost $1 a round for the Doubletap I would probably just stick to the speer loading which can be had for much less.

              Here is a test of the .40sw DT vs Speer GD check out the results
