Description
Byrna Max 0.68 Caliber Pepper Projectiles – 5 Count
The Byrna Max projectile is Byrna's most powerful 0.68 caliber round, engineered for maximum stopping power in non-lethal self-defense situations. Each round contains a proprietary OC (Oleoresin Capsicum) + CS (tear gas) dual-agent blend — delivering higher chemical concentration and faster dispersion than any comparable round on the market.
Upon impact, the projectile bursts and releases a rapidly expanding cloud of chemical irritants that incapacitates a threat within seconds. The saturation area extends in all directions from the point of impact, making it highly effective even with imprecise aim.
Key Features
- 🔴 Dual OC + CS chemical agent blend — the most potent non-lethal projectile formula available
- 💨 High-dispersion burst-on-impact design — cloud expands in all directions instantly
- 🎯 0.68 caliber — compatible with all Byrna 0.68 caliber launchers
- ⚡ Quick-acting incapacitation — effects begin within seconds of exposure
- 📦 5-count pack — ready to load and deploy
- 🇺🇸 Made in the USA
Physical Effects on Attacker
The OC + CS blend triggers an immediate and overwhelming physiological response:
- Burning of the eyes, throat, and lungs
- Wheezing, gasping, and shortness of breath
- Dry cough, gagging, and inability to breathe normally
- Nausea, chest tightness, and excessive salivation
- Disorientation, agitation, fear, and panic
These combined effects rapidly neutralize a threat without causing permanent injury.

Quite splendid, really. The Byrna
"Quite splendid, really. The Byrna Pepper 0. 68 Caliber Projectiles, what I fondly call these spicy meatballs, arrived promptly and in impeccable condition. An elegant solution for personal security, delivering just the right amount of persuasive seasoning when the situation calls for it. Also remarkably effective for discouraging juvenile coyotes who seem to lack proper manners. Five stars - refined, reliable, and reassuringly robust."
