Full description and what we offer

PCP Ammunition started with a simple problem: warfighters needed lighter ammunition without sacrificing performance. What they built instead was revolutionary—polymer-cased cartridges that outperform brass while cutting weight by 30%.

Their patent-pending polymer cases use a metal head that handles extreme pressures and violent firearm actions. The result: ammunition that meets SAAMI specifications for both dimension and pressure while delivering superior accuracy. As a bonus, polymer cases reduce heat transfer to the chamber.

USSOCOM shooters have validated that PCP ammo out-shoots the military equivalent loads. Third-party labs confirm velocity and pressure specs are safe and compliant.

PCP doesn't just make ammo—they inspect it like a government contract demands:

  • •Automated production: High-end linear loading with custom automated bullet and primer sealing eliminates human error
  • •Camera and laser inspection: Every round checked against dozens of cameras and lasers (based on US Army ATACs system) for critical dimensions, concentricity, and proper sealing
  • •Precision measurement: Dimensions verified to .0005", bullet extraction force tested, waterproofing validated
  • •Temperature testing: From -40°F to +165°F

They also use Oehler Ballistic Lab hardware, piezoelectric pressure transducers, and Savage range systems for validation.

  • •Current Status: PCP is focused on military and law enforcement contracts. They're not currently selling to the commercial market, though they plan to release polymer ammunition to civilians in the future.
  • •Calibers: Currently producing premium rifle cartridges only (no pistol ammo yet).
  • •Performance: Match-grade accuracy from factory ammunition. No special storage required—treat it like any standard ammunition.
  • •Reloading: Do not reload PCP cases. Polymer case capacity differs from brass, which creates unsafe pressures with standard reloading data.
  • •Temperature Limits: Commercial grade not rated below 0°F (military version handles colder). In extreme heat, polymer cases will cook-off like brass in closed-bolt firearms.
  • •Fluted Chambers: Do not use in firearms with fluted chambers.

"Our ammunition performance has been tested and validated by various shooters within the USSOCOM group with users repeatedly finding that our ammunition out shoots the military equivalent loads."

Dealer and distributor inquiries are welcome. As development and testing complete, PCP will expand their caliber offerings. New cartridges will be released under their patented polymer case design.
