40 S&W lighter bullet weights

[saskgunowner101]

I was just wondering if anyone knows where a guy could find some of the lighter ammo(135grn)for the .40S&W.It seems all I can find is 165 and 180.I've looked all over,but gotten nowhere fast.I don't reload,so any suggestions would be appreciated.

Unfortunately, I have not come across any commercial loads that low yet. Not to say they don't exist but it seems mostly 160-180 grain bullets for factory ammo.
I know you mentioned you don't reload but this might be a good excuse to do so. I noticed Lee has a 145 grain SWC bullet mold

I guess thats the beauty of reloading, you can really customize your loads to your gun.

Yeah, I think reloading is in my distant future for sure.But I was mostly curious about Cor-Bon??? or something like that, 135grn, and around 550 or better foot pounds energy.I'm guessing snappy recoil,but thats half the fun.

wolfbullets. com have 155gr SWC if you wanted to start reloading. This is pretty much the lightest I've seen around.
