Pilgrim Ammunition is a new US-based ammunition R&D, manufacturing, and marketing company. They recently announced the launch of American-made personal self defense ammo in 9mm, .380 Auto, .40 S&W, and .45 ACP this coming October.

For those in law enforcement the key benefits to this ammo is it’s stopping power and that it is designed to avoid over-penetration. Innocent bystanders are protected with ammunition that has minimal over-penetration protects innocent bystanders. Also, the chance of lawsuits against police agencies is reduced by this feature.

The new ammunition is designed with a starburst fragmentation pattern that delivers maximum stopping power with a 100 percent energy transfer, which reduces over-penetration. Designed by ballistics expert P.J. Marx, the rounds are lead-free and California compliant.

According to Marx, “Pilgrim Ammunition is sourcing only premium components. Our quality control is superior to many other ammo producers on the market. Pilgrim Ammunition will be the only manufacturer producing the ammunition I originally designed to provide ultimate stopping power with drastically reduced overpenetration.”

From Pilgrim:

Each caliber delivers significantly more kinetic energy than comparable rounds.
