Cor®Bon Is Back

If you’ve spent any time in the shooting world, chances are you’ve heard the name Cor®Bon Ammunition. Since 1982, Cor®Bon has defined innovation, higher velocity, and purpose-built performance ammo designed to perform when it matters most. From law enforcement professionals to everyday concealed carriers and hunters, shooters have trusted Cor®Bon ammo for decades because it consistently offers something different — loads engineered for real-world results, not just numbers on a box.

Over the past few years, Cor®Bon Ammunition took a step back to restructure and refocus. Production slowed, availability dipped, and many shooters felt like an old friend had disappeared from the shelves. Fortunately, that’s changing now. Cor®Bon has returned — refreshed, re-energized, and more committed than ever to producing ammunition that pushes industry standards forward.

This is where Target Sports USA makes a difference: we’re proud to announce that we are now an official Factory Direct Partner with Cor®Bon Ammunition. This partnership goes beyond a title. It ensures that the ammo you purchase from us comes directly from Cor®Bon’s production floor to our shelves — with no middle steps, no outdated inventory, and no guessing whether your order is fresh.

With nearly 70,000 retail and wholesale members, Target Sports USA customers enjoy first access to the latest Cor®Bon runs. As a result, you can count on availability, reliability, and cutting-edge performance from one of the most trusted names in the industry.

Why Factory Direct
Matters

Ammo buyers today are savvy. You don’t just want a trusted name on the box; you want to know where it came from, how recently it was produced, and whether you can count on a consistent supply. Being a Factory Direct Partner means Target Sports USA can answer all of those questions confidently:

  • Fresh production lots: You’re not buying ammo that sat for years in a warehouse.
  • Priority access: We receive shipments as soon as Cor®Bon produces them.
  • Member advantage: With nearly 70,000 members, our community gets to shop these SKUs first — and often exclusively.

It’s a partnership that brings Cor®Bon’s comeback directly to your range bag, carry gun, or hunting rifle.

What’s Available?

When shooters hear that Cor®Bon is back, the next question is always: Which loads are available? Here’s a closer look at the staples returning to production — and why each one matters for different shooters.

DPX® — Solid Copper Hollow Point

DPX® is Cor®Bon’s answer to one of the toughest challenges in defensive shooting: reliable expansion through barriers. By using an all-copper bullet, DPX® is able to penetrate straight, expand consistently, and retain nearly 100% of its weight even after passing through heavy clothing or common obstacles. It’s a favorite among concealed carriers who want barrier-blind performance without sacrificing expansion.
If you want a round that’s dependable across environments and calibers, DPX® is the standard-bearer.

Pow’RBall® — Polymer-Capped Hollow Point

Feeding issues with hollow points are nothing new — especially in older pistols. Pow’RBall® solved that problem years ago by filling the hollow cavity with a polymer ball that gives the bullet a smooth, round profile. The result? Flawless feeding in virtually any semi-auto pistol, paired with rapid, controlled expansion once the bullet hits its target.
For anyone carrying a semi-auto, but especially those with pistols that are picky with hollow points, Pow’RBall® provides the perfect blend of reliability and stopping power.

Urban Response™

Defensive shootings rarely happen in wide-open spaces. They happen in parking lots, hallways, bedrooms, and living rooms. Urban Response™ was built with that reality in mind. Using low-flash powders and controllable recoil profiles, these loads are optimized for low-light and close-quarters encounters where fast follow-up shots matter.
For home defense or EDC, Urban Response™ gives shooters an edge when the environment isn’t ideal.

Hunter

Cor®Bon’s reputation goes beyond defensive use. The Hunter line is designed specifically for sportsmen who want hard-hitting performance in the field. These rounds are tuned to deliver high energy transfer and reliable expansion on game, making them an excellent choice for deer, hogs, and other medium- to large-sized targets.
Hunters know that bullet selection can make the difference between a quick, ethical harvest and a long track. Cor®Bon Hunter loads are built for exactly that purpose — to stop game cleanly and effectively.

Glaser Safety Slug®

One of the most unique offerings in the Cor®Bon family is the Glaser Safety Slug®. This pre-fragmented round is designed to deliver devastating energy on target while reducing the risk of over-penetration. For home defense or environments where safety beyond the target is critical, Glaser Safety Slug® is a proven option.
It’s been called the original “safety slug,” and decades later, it’s still one of the smartest solutions for shooters who want both stopping power and peace of mind in confined spaces.

JHP — Jacketed Hollow Point

Cor®Bon’s Jacketed Hollow Point (JHP) line is built for one purpose—stopping threats fast. Engineered for deep penetration and rapid energy transfer, these rounds deliver reliable expansion without over-penetration, making them trusted for personal defense. Each cartridge is carefully crafted with premium components and strict quality control, giving shooters the confidence that every shot will perform as expected when it matters most. The Cor®Bon JHP line combines proven design with the stopping power you need to protect what matters.

Performance Match®

Cor®Bon’s Performance Match line is designed for shooters who demand precision. Each round is built with match-grade components and held to exacting standards, giving you consistent accuracy shot after shot. Whether you’re competing, training, or dialing in your rifle, Performance Match delivers tight groups and dependable performance. With Cor®Bon, you can trust your ammo to be as consistent as your trigger pull.

 

Why Cor®Bon Matters Now

Over the past decade, the ammo market has seen countless new names and “next big thing” offerings. But the truth is, few brands have the legacy, real-world track record, and consistent innovation that Cor®Bon brings. This isn’t just about nostalgia — it’s about having proven ammunition back on the shelves when shooters need it most.

For carriers, Cor®Bon’s defensive loads mean peace of mind. For hunters, the Hunter® line means confidence in the field. For anyone concerned about home defense, Urban Response™ and Glaser® offer specialized solutions you won’t find anywhere else.
With Cor®Bon back in production and Target Sports USA as a Factory Direct Partner, the wait is over. You don’t have to wonder if you’ll see Cor®Bon on shelves again — it’s here, and it’s ready for your next range day, carry rotation, or hunt.
