Engel Ballistic Research’s 325gr Frangible Hollow Point Safety Entry Slug minimizes over penetration in a deadly force situation. Please view our demonstration video, it shows the frangible entry slug disintegrating a watermelon, but not penetrating through the paper target directly behind the watermelon. This makes the round ideal for minimizing risk and collateral damage during door breaching and home defense operations.

Engel Ballistic Research is proud to introduce our 12 Gauge Expanding Slug for home defense and hunting applications. This slug will expand out to 1.4325" on impact with soft tissue. The maximum expansion of this devastating round allows for an extreme transfer of energy. Please watch our ballistic gel test video for a demonstration of this energy transfer.

Our 9mm Expanding ammunition maximizes lethality, while still penetrating 12" on average during an FBI Ballistic Gel Test.

Our .45 ACP MAX solid copper expanding ammunition maximizes lethality and cavitation, while not over penetrating making it ideal for home defense and law enforcement scenarios.

The Lead-Free EBR Frangible line is ideal for home defense, shoot houses and steel targets. EBR frangible ammunition provides an extra measure of accuracy and safety for those training or protecting their home. The projectile is designed to break apart and expand in soft tissue or hard surfaces, significantly reducing the chance of ricochet or over penetration.

EBR frangible ammunition provides an extra measure of accuracy and safety for those training or protecting their home. The projectile is designed to break apart and expand in soft tissue or hard surfaces, significantly reducing the chance ricochet or over penetration.

The Engel Ballistic Research .223 Solid Copper Expanding ammunition allows for the ultimate expansions of 0.77" on impact with soft tissue. This translates to more lethality when you need it. The round is MOA accurate out of a quality weapon platform.

The Lead-Free EBR Frangible line is ideal for home defense, shoot houses and steel targets. EBR frangible ammunition provides an extra measure of accuracy and safety for those training or protecting their home. The projectile is designed to break apart against hard surfaces, significantly reducing the chance ricochet or over penetration.

This high performance 130 grain solid copper .308 Win cartridge is built entirely from premium, match-grade components and is manufactured to strict tolerances.  It provides excellent (MOA) accuracy while maximizing projectile expansion and energy transfer for optimal terminal ballistics.

The Lead-Free EBR Frangible line is ideal for home defense, shoot houses and steel targets. EBR frangible ammunition provides an extra measure of accuracy and safety for those training or protecting their home. The projectile is designed to break apart against hard surfaces, significantly reducing the chance ricochet or over penetration.

The Lead-Free EBR Frangible .50 line is designed specifically to allow the shooter to utilize the incredible power of a .50 caliber weapon system in environments and ranges that normally do not permit the use of .50 caliber weapons. EBR frangible ammunition provides an extra measure of accuracy and safety for those training or performing job-related duties in urban areas. The projectile is designed to break apart and expand on contact with hard surfaces, significantly reducing the chance ricochet or over-penetration. The Wide Taper Point (WTP) projectile is ideal for sniper teams operating in urban environments, training or individuals shooting on limited distance ranges due to its anti-ricochet properties. Most applications will benefit from the TaperPoint 700gr projectile. It feeds reliably in bolt action rifles, semi-automatic rifles, and belt-fed machine guns.

The Lead-Free EBR Frangible .50 BMG line is designed specifically to allow the shooter to utilize the incredible power of a.50 caliber weapon system in environments and ranges that normally do not permit the use of .50 BMGcaliber weapons. EBR frangible ammunition provides an extra measure of accuracy and safety for those training or performing job-related duties in urban areas. The hollow point projectile is designed to break apart and expand on contact with hard surfaces, significantly reducing the chance ricochet or over-penetration. The Engel Ballistic Research, Inc. .50 BMG Limited Penetration ammunition was created for a U.S. federal agency operating in and around water and designed to significantly reduce the chance of ricochet off of water at low angles while still maintaining accuracy and it’s disintegrating properties consistent with our other .50 BMG Frangible ammunition.  This ammunition also limits the penetration of .50 BMG ammunition on soft targets.  The round will almost entirely be contained in a 16" gel block vastly limiting the penetrating qualities in the .50 BMG caliber.
