Federal’s Syntech Defense 9mm ammunition delivers advanced terminal performance through a hollow-point design that separates into three segments plus a deep-penetrating core upon impact. The core achieves 12 to 18 inches of penetration through bare ballistics gel, meeting critical self-defense benchmarks and providing superior terminal performance in its class. The three petals create secondary wound channels exceeding 6 inches in depth, enhancing terminal effect. Federal’s polymer jacket technology eliminates lead and copper fouling while reducing barrel heat and friction. The round features Federal’s exclusive Catalyst primer for hot, reliable ignition without lead.
This 138 Grain Semi Jacketed Hollow Point load comes in a 50-round box, combining Federal’s proven Syntech platform with purpose-built self-defense performance.
