Gel test Results
We tested this Sig Sauer 40 Smith & Wesson ammo by firing five rounds with a S&W M&P40c with a -inch barrel into calibrated Clear Ballistics gelatin. Of those five rounds, we discovered the ammo penetrated an average of 20.26-inches into the gelatin. Our test rounds ended the test with an average expanded diameter of 0.478-inches, retaining 100% of the projectile's original weight.
