I would take homage and point out that there are many types of 5.7x28.
Here is our current non-restricted product line and brief descriptions.
IlluminaTOR Tracer
Our IlluminaTOR Tracer cartridge is loaded with a bright red* mil-spec tracer. When shot, the bullet provides the same velocity and point of impact as our 55-grain FMJ round, allowing the shooter to accurately adjust his or her point of aim during night fire. We’re so confident in our IlluminaTOR Tracer that we back each and every round with our unconditional performance guarantee. If our tracers ever fail to ignite when fired, simply contact us about a hassle-free replacement or refund.
Elite Ammunition's tracers help keep time on your side. The pyrotechnic tracer compound in each IlluminaTOR Tracer bullet boasts an impressive shelf life of ten (10) years.
QuieTOR Subsonic
Sleek, quiet, and undeniably effective – Our QuieTOR subsonic ammunition is not just the first choice amongst suppressed 5.7x28mm enthusiasts; but also arguably the most effective choice for law enforcement and military operators. When operational conditions call for a quiet response, trust the round QuieTOR above the rest.
Our steadfast commitment to producing truly elite ammunition is reflected in every detail of the QuieTOR subsonic cartridge. Our precision manufacturing process holds individual cartridge tolerances within a mere thousandth of an inch. Such tight tolerances help provide a predictable consistency with each pull of the trigger. Platform-specific powder charges are carefully engineered to minimize recoil, maximize ballistic performance, enhance operator safety, and increase weapon reliability.
It is our strict adherence to quality control standards that allows us to guarantee true subsonic performance from every QuieTOR we sell.

VarminaTOR
Elite proudly presents the VarminTOR 5.7x28mm high-performance small game round. Assembled using the renowned Barnes Varmint Grenade and propelled by a generous powder charge, the VarminTOR rockets past our chronographs at 2,100 fps* when fired from the FN Five seveN pistol!
The VarminTOR’s unique design balances high speed with match-grade accuracy and remarkable expansion properties. Upon impact, the bullet expands dramatically into small fragments, typically resulting in instant incapacitation. It is also important to note that these bullet fragments rarely exit the animal, avoiding damage to the game’s valuable pelt. Whether varmint hunting is your hobby, your profession, or simply your contribution to pest control, you can depend on the VarminTOR to get the job done!
*Velocity is quoted for the 5" Five seven pistol barrel, add 50 fps per additional inch of barrel
ProtecTOR Personal Defense
When fired from the FN Five seveN pistol, the ProtecTOR reaches 2,400 feet per second and able to impart more than 350 foot-pounds of energy on target. With the use of an FN P90 or PS90, bullet speeds increase by several hundreds of feet per second, outperforming many similarly sized 5.56x45mm weapons.
Astounding ballistic performance makes the ProtecTOR one of Elite’s most popular offerings. The cartridge design delivers the optimal level of penetration against a would-be attacker--while significantly reducing the risk of over-penetration when fired indoors. Gelatin tests conducted with a Five seveN handgun generated overwhelming hydrostatic shock effects and stunning elastic wound channels. The results revealed our ProtecTOR rivaled the stopping power of larger rifle calibers, while remaining safer than most pistol rounds in terms of material penetration and potential for ricochets.
When your family’s safety depends on you, depend on the ProtecTOR from Elite Ammunition.

PenetraTOR Tac-Op
The PenetraTOR is heaviest supersonic 5.7x28mm round commercially available. Loaded with our special 55-grain FMJ. The PenetraTOR has been extensively tested, in the lab and in the field.
Our standard PenetraTOR is the most accurate cartridge in our catalog, capable of sub-1-inch groups at 25 yards out of the Five seveN’s 5-inch barrel*! Out of the P90 or PS90, the 2300+ feet-per-second bullet is more actually than most ever thought the platform was capable of.
Ideal for law enforcement, military personnel, varmint shooters, mid-sized game hunters, and even competition shooters–the PenetraTOR’s performance and versatility will surely leave you questioning how you ever got along without! **
* Accuracy was measured by averaging 3-10 shot groups from a Five-seveN pistol at 25 yards, held in a machine rest. Your results may vary.
** Shot-placement is the most important variable when confronted with dangerous situations and you should not rely solely on the performance of ammunition for your safety. As with all shootings, shot placement is the most important aspect of wound ballistics; far above projectile choice.
X-TerminaTOR Hunting Cartridge
ou asked for it, and we've delivered.
Our most popular "Off Catalogue" cartridge is now available for purchase without placing a special order. The Elite Ammunition X-TerminaTOR.
This cartridges pushes a 45 grain Barnes TSX FB bullet at more than 1,900 fps from the pistol (375 Ft.Lbs of energy), and 2,500 fps from the PS90, which equates to 625 Ft.Lbs or kinetic energy at the muzzle.
Capitalizing on Barnes legendary bullet design, quality control, and terminal expansion, Elite Ammunition has reached another milestone in the war on wildlife with the X-TerminaTOR.
Penetration through 15% ballistics gellatin exceeds 14", from the pistol, and bullet expansion is greater than 50% of the original diameter. From the PS90, the bullet penetrates a full 21" of 15% ballistics gellatin while expanding more than 75% of the original diameter. Weight retention is more than 99.5%, even after passing through bone and connective tissue.
The X-TerminaTOR comes shipped in a 50 round plastic Berry's Bullet box, at no additional charge, protecting the X-TerminaTOR during even the most gruelling of hunts.
Never before has a more effective small to medium game hunting round been developed in 5.7x28mm; again proving that Elite Ammunition truly is "The Result of Perfection."
S4 UltraRapTOR Tac-Op Cartridge VIRGIN BRASS ONLY
Our UltraRapTOR can be described as a hybrid of magnum-power hollow-point and high-speed rifle-caliber FMJ. The UltraRapTOR’s 28-grain hollow-point reaches speeds of 2600 feet-per-second when fired from a Five seveN pistol and match the proven abilities the Colt M4 when fired from a P90 merely half the size.
The bullet’s speed and shape practically guarantee instant target neutralization. When every hit counts, this round delivers. Against soft targets, blunt impact trauma and brutal tissue damage simply can't be found in a similarly sized cartridge. Furthermore, LEO and military specialists may request private copies of our test data regarding effectiveness against body armor.
The S4 UltraRapTOR is quite possibly the fastest and most-effective anti-personnel round ever chambered in 5.7x28mm.
