The .40 S&W is a rimless pistol cartridge developed jointly by major American firearms manufacturers Smith & Wesson and Winchester.
Smith & Wesson and Winchester introduced .40 Cal bullets in 1990, just six months after the Federal Bureau of Investigation requested the development of ammunition with the stopping power of the .45 ACP, but with the ease of use of the 9mm.
40 S&W quickly caught on and remains a popular caliber for personal protection and range training today. .40 cal ammo is still very common among shooters today and is one of the more modern rounds available to American civilian shooters.
