Premium Products for Superior Performance
We designed the Torch line to eliminate a threat with the fewest rounds possible by creating the maximum amount of damage and tissue disruption as possible.
Our rounds are exceptionally lightweight with a very high velocity. For example, our 9mm projectiles travel at 2000fps with an extremely deep cavity and only weigh 50 grains.
Torch rounds penetrate most barriers, but when they hit a soft target, the round slows and fragments into a starburst pattern, maximizing the energy transfer into the target creating a devasting wound cavity with multiple channels.
Premium Materials | Superior Performance
We at Pilgrim Ammunition designed a projectile for the Torch line that would do three things:
- Accurate at high speeds while maintaining the structure
- Penetrate through barriers adequately
- Expand from pressure when encountering soft tissue/fluid, causing the bullet to fragment and open additional wound channels
The goal was to avoid over-penetration and transfer 100% of the bullet’s energy into the target with reduced recoil for the shooter. We accomplished that goal by using copper machined from solid monolithic stock. We then nickel plate them after they are made.
Nickel plating has quite a few benefits from reduced barrel fouling to smoother feeding and more reliable ejection.
