G2 RESEARCH G00622 CIVIC DUTY10MM 122 GRAIN LEAD FREE 20 RNDS

The G2 Research Civic Duty (G00622) is a 10mm Auto self-defense cartridge loaded with a 122 grain solid copper expanding hollow point projectile, engineered as a lead-free alternative to conventional bonded hollow points for concealed carry holders, home defenders, and range-restricted shooters who need California Certified Nonlead ammunition. This 10mm lead-free self-defense round delivers extreme expansion terminal performance in a 20-round box, making it a practical choice for law enforcement, civilian carriers, and shooters in lead-restricted environments.

Special Features

• The Civic Duty projectile uses G2 Research's Trocar-inspired CNC-machined copper design, which initiates expansion immediately upon contact with a fluid medium and opens to 2.5 times the original bullet diameter without relying on a lead core or bonding process.
• Solid copper construction eliminates the jacket separation common in conventional hollow points, keeping 99.9 percent of projectile weight inside the target and delivering full energy transfer without fragmenting into unpredictable secondary projectiles.
• The expanding copper hollow point achieves 8 to 9 inches of penetration in ballistic gelatin, placing it within the FBI recommended range for defensive handgun ammunition while the extreme expansion limits the energy remaining beyond the target.
• California Certified Nonlead status means the G2 Research Civic Duty (G00622) in 10mm meets the lead-free requirements for use on ranges and hunting areas that prohibit lead ammunition, expanding where and how this round can be used.
• The brass casing is boxer primed and reloadable, giving handloaders the option to recycle spent cases after the first firing rather than treating the brass as single-use.
• Packaging of 20 rounds per box with 25 boxes per case makes the Civic Duty line practical for small-quantity retail display and larger case-lot purchasing without requiring special ordering configurations.

Practical Benefits

• The 10mm cartridge generates substantially more energy than 9mm and .40 S&W loads, and the 122 grain Civic Duty projectile at 1,100 fps puts that energy to work through controlled expansion rather than over-penetrating and wasting it beyond the target.
• Lead-free construction makes these rounds compatible with indoor ranges that prohibit lead-core ammunition, giving you a carry-grade defensive load you can also train with in ventilated or lead-restricted facilities.
• The solid copper projectile feeds reliably in semi-automatic 10mm platforms without the feeding inconsistencies that sometimes affect heavily fluted or pre-expanded defensive bullet designs.
• Reloadable brass cases mean you can recover and reload spent brass to extend the value of the ammunition beyond the initial purchase, which matters at the premium price point of performance defensive loads.
• If you carry a 10mm pistol for personal protection or work in an environment where lead-free ammunition is required, the G2 Research Civic Duty (G00622) gives you a factory-loaded defensive round built around a purpose-engineered projectile that performs on its own terms rather than borrowing from a conventional hollow point formula.

The G2 Research Civic Duty (G00622) in 10mm Auto is a capable tool for the serious defensive shooter or lead-conscious carrier who wants a precision-built, lead-free expanding round that delivers controlled terminal performance from one of the most powerful semi-automatic pistol cartridges available.
