About About Lehigh Defense
Lehigh Defense is dedicated to advancing firearm and ammunition technology through innovation and precision engineering.
For over 20 years, the company has designed, tested, and refined cutting-edge bullet and ammunition solutions to push the limits of performance and reliability.
Lehigh Defense began by manufacturing Swiss CNC-machined Match Solid Bullets for competitive shooting.
Through extensive research and development, the company created a world record-setting high-performance bullet, redefining accuracy and reliability in the industry.
Expanding beyond competition shooting, Lehigh Defense revolutionized hunting ammunition by developing the first Controlled Fracturing bullet for muzzleloaders.
Originally designed for Knight Rifles, this technology has since evolved into a full line of Controlled Fracture ammunition, offering superior terminal performance.
The company also pioneered Subsonic bullet technology, creating projectiles that match or exceed the terminal effectiveness of high-velocity bullets.
This innovation has set a new standard for subsonic ammunition performance.
As Lehigh Defense’s reputation has grown, so has its commitment to personal defense and law enforcement applications.
By refining the Controlled Fracture design, the company now produces high-performance defense ammunition with exceptional terminal ballistics and barrier penetration.
This technology has gained the trust of law enforcement and military personnel due to its ability to maximize stopping power while ensuring bystander safety.
Lehigh Defense continues to lead the industry with groundbreaking ammunition technology, ensuring that shooters, hunters, and tactical professionals have access to the most advanced and reliable bullets available.
