Trying to see if it's something I can carry in my duty pistol. People are saying it could be a hand load so that's off the table, now it's just curiosity.
Well it is for sure a 9mm Luger hollowpoint cartridge.
That being said it is a bit harder to tell specifics. The head stamp of "JAG" means that it was a prop in the TV Show "JAG", a popular show in the '90's. LOL. Just kidding. Means that the brass was from Jagemann brass which is currently owned by AMMO Inc. However Jafeman brass is like Starline brass in that you can buy just the brass cases yourself to reload your own ammo, or smaller ammo manufacturers will source their brass from companies like Jageman or Starline brass to build their ammo. For instance I have some hot .357 mag loads from Grizzly Ammo Inc. that have JAG head stamps on them. The only real way to figure out the mass of the bullet would be to pull it out of the case and a weigh it.
Sorry if it doesnt help too much. My bets are that it its a round from Ammo Inc, or a smaller manufacturer, which like you mentioned Balck Hills would fall under that category. The harder thing too is that 9mm is the the most common centerfire pistol cartridge out there so lots of variations and loadings.
Yeah could definitely be Black Hills. Could be a lot of things though lol. I would be comfortable shooting them at the range, but my dude if this is for a duty pistol spend a few bucks and replace that ammo with someone of a known origin.

Underwood uses them and star line brass. Looks like Underwood JHP

Is there a reason you're on this investigation or just happy with the ammo someone let you try and trying to find more?

Does your department have an ammo policy? Certain approved manufacturers?
MoreZookeepergame999@reddit (OP)
No, it just has to be hollow points
Go_Loud762@reddit
Wow. That's a low bar.
I'd stick with a well known major US manufacturer. That's not a guarantee of anything, but it is a better bet.
The FBI has done a ton of testing. Take a look at their results and see if one of those fits your budget.
Wait a second,... does your department not issue duty ammo?
MoreZookeepergame999@reddit (OP)
No it doesn't, to clarify I'm a security officer, not a police officer.
USMC_Tbone@reddit
Gotcha.
advmaxx@reddit
Bullets. Definitely bullets.
Go_Loud762@reddit
Cartridges. Definitely Cartridges.
gaustin@reddit
So you're saying these aren't recommended for use as suppositories?
TN_REDDIT@reddit
they can, but I'd definitely not use the included applicator. manual insertion only.

Lol ty, they're going to the range for sure.
CapnCurt81@reddit
JAG (the headstamp) makes primed brass. Those are either someone's handloads or loaded by a smaller manufacturer. I think AAC used JAG brass.
MoreZookeepergame999@reddit (OP)
This is what I found when I researched it. If it is a hand load then I can't risk carrying it unfortunately. It's for my duty pistol.

I have my mags loaded with V crowns, I just wanted to know what these are. I'll definitely take them to the range though, they won't be wasted
gaustin@reddit
I got similar from Freedom Munitions, IIRC. Jaeger brass and very similar looking projectiles.
MoreZookeepergame999@reddit (OP)
From my limited research they appear to be Black Hills 124gr 9mm JHP. I can't say for sure though...
