Overview
The Sig Sauer Rose 9mm Luger 115gr Full Metal Jacket (FMJ) ammunition is engineered specifically for optimal performance in short-barrel pistols. This load is designed to deliver consistent, reliable function and ballistic integrity from compact platforms, addressing the unique operational characteristics of shorter pistol barrels. Its formulation aims to integrate performance with shooting comfort, making it a suitable choice for training and practice, particularly for shooters utilizing smaller, lighter handguns.
Key Features
Optimized for Short-Barrel Platforms
This 9mm Luger load is meticulously designed to achieve its rated performance from short-barrel pistols, typically those with 3.1-inch barrels or similar. The powder charge and bullet construction are balanced to ensure complete propellant burn within reduced barrel lengths, mitigating unburnt powder residue and maximizing projectile stability upon exit.
Consistent Ballistic Performance
The 115gr Full Metal Jacket projectile is engineered to achieve a muzzle velocity of 1050 ft/sec and a muzzle energy of 282 ft-lbs from a 3.1-inch barrel. This specific load is designed for optimized terminal performance, consistent penetration depth, expansion, and weight retention, even from compact firearms. The projectile’s construction promotes predictable flight characteristics within its operational parameters.
Recoil Mitigation
Sig Sauer has formulated this ammunition to reduce felt recoil, enhancing shooter comfort and facilitating quicker follow-up shots. This softer shooting performance improves compatibility with lightweight, short-barreled pistols, where standard loads can often produce a more pronounced recoil impulse. The controlled recoil contributes to improved shooter control and accuracy during extended training sessions.
