Federal Syntech Defense Ammunition 40 S&W 175 Grain Synthetic Jacket Segmented Hollow Point

Federal Syntech changed the shooting range forever. Now the technology is revolutionizing protection as well. Syntech Defense provides dynamic terminal performance with a hollow-point bullet that separates into three segments and a deep-penetrating core on impact. The core penetrates 12 to 18 inches through bare ballistics gel and heavy clothing — a critical benchmark in self-defense situations and the best terminal performance of any round in its class. The petals create three secondary wound channels, each more than 6 inches deep, adding to the terminal effect. Like all Syntech loads, an advanced polymer jacket eliminates lead and copper fouling and drastically reduces damaging heat and friction in the barrel. Its Federal exclusive Catalyst primer provides hot, extremely reliable ignition without the use of lead. This ammunition is new production, non-corrosive, in boxer-primed, reloadable brass cases.  FeaturesHollow-point bullet separates into three segments and a deep-penetrating core on impactCore achieves 12 to 18 inches of penetration in both bare ballistics gel and through heavy clothingSegments create three secondary wound channels more than 6 inches deepBlue polymer jacket reduces barrel heat and friction and eliminates metal foulingExtremely reliable Catalyst lead-free primer
