NEW FEDERAL AMMUNITION
Owning a handgun for protection is an important individual decision and a big responsibility. It requires a thorough understanding of handgun operation, maintenance, safety and storage, as well as knowledge of local, state and federal laws. As with all types of shooting, training in the use of a handgun is imperative.
Expanding Full Metal Jacket
- No hollowpoint to fill and block expansion, thus very consistent expansion
through barriers - Internally skived jacket gives consistent, symmetrical expanded shape with
a large diameter - Rubber front core functions works well under a wide range of operating
velocities and temperatures - Works well in short barreled and standard barrel length handguns
- Low flash propellant for low light tactical use
- Reliable feed and function in semi-auto and automatic weapon
- High velocity with low recoil for increases energy for effectiveness, yet reduces recoil for controllability - helps you stay on target when it counts the most
- Performance designed for personal defense use, so penetrations and expansions designed to work best in situations likely to be encountered in personal defense
- Clear, tamper-resistant box allows customers to see the ammunition without opening the box

Premium® Handgun Bullet Styles
Premium® Personal Defense® (Featuring Hydra-Shok® bullets)
We hope you'll never have to use our Premium® Personal Defense® ammunition in a critical situation. But if you do, you'll
appreciate the increased muzzle velocity and energy compared to standard loads, and the rapid bullet expansion that delivers
instant stopping power. You'll also appreciate that recoil is significantly reduced. In addition, our unique clear packaging lets
you see the ammo before you even open the box.
Hydra-Shok®
The choice of law enforcement agencies nationwide. Federal's unique center-post design delivers controlled expansion, and the
notched jacket provides efficient energy transfer to penetrate barriers while retaining stopping power. The deep penetration of this
jacketed bullet satisfies even the FBI's stringent testing requirements.
Premium® Expanding Full Metal Jacket
An ideal choice for agencies that don't permit hollow point ammunition, this revolutionary barrier-penetrating design
combines a scored full metal nose over an internal rubber tip that collapses on impact. It never fills with barrier material
and assures expansion on every shot. A lead core at the base maintains weight retention.
