Product Overview
The CorBon POW'RBALL in .40 S&W delivers a cutting-edge self-defense solution that combines reliable feeding, controlled expansion, and superior terminal performance in a single 135-grain projectile.
- Patented polymer ball cap prevents hollow point clogging from clothing or debris
- V-shaped lead core initiates consistent, full expansion upon impact
- Gilding metal jacket ensures structural integrity at high velocities
- Screaming 1,325 fps muzzle velocity for exceptional energy transfer
- Polymer ball improves aerodynamics and feed reliability in semi-automatic pistols
- Delayed expansion allows deep penetration before the cavity fully opens
Who This Is For
CorBon POW'RBALL is purpose-built for concealed carry holders, home defenders, and law enforcement officers who demand a hollow point round that feeds flawlessly, resists barrier plugging, and expands reliably through heavy clothing. If you carry a .40 S&W semi-automatic pistol and need confidence in every round, this ammunition was designed with you in mind.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the POW'RBALL polymer tip improve performance over standard hollow points?
Standard hollow point bullets can fail to expand when the cavity becomes plugged with clothing fibers, denim, or other barrier material. The CorBon POW'RBALL's round polymer ball fills and protects the hollow point cavity during flight and on initial impact. As the bullet penetrates, the ball is pushed back into the cavity and forces the lead V-shaped core to expand reliably — even after passing through heavy clothing or light barriers.
Is this ammunition suitable for all .40 S&W semi-automatic pistols?
Yes. One of the key design advantages of the POW'RBALL is its rounded polymer tip, which mimics the profile of a full metal jacket round. This allows it to feed smoothly and reliably in virtually all .40 S&W semi-automatic handguns, including models that may have difficulty feeding traditional hollow point ammunition. Always verify compatibility with your specific firearm and run a function test before relying on any new load for carry.
How should I store this ammunition, and what is its shelf life?
Store CorBon POW'RBALL ammunition in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight, extreme heat, and moisture. When stored properly in its original packaging, quality centerfire ammunition like this can maintain reliable performance for a decade or more. Avoid storing ammo in humid environments such as basements without climate control, and inspect rounds periodically for any signs of corrosion or case damage before use.
