20 Rounds of 135gr JHP 9mm Ammo by Federal Hydra-Shok

Federal was founded in 1922 by Charles Horn, who established the company by marketing its ammunition everywhere, from barber shops to gas stations. His methods worked and Federal became well-known quickly; before long they were being offered a government contract to build and operate the Twin City Ordnance Plant. Federal produced ammunition for our nation’s military through several conflicts, and their dedication was so impressive they were awarded an Army-Navy “E” for excellence. Today Federal is respected in the industry and is well known for producing quality, reliably performing rounds.

These particular Federal rounds are made for your 9mm. At 135 grain these are medium-weight rounds, still light enough to race down-range at good speeds but heavy enough to impact targets with a solid punch. These are Jacketed Hollow Point, or JHP, rounds and begin to expand immediately upon impact. Their jackets increase overall bullet strength and control expansion, so the bullets are able to penetrate more deeply than standard HPs, creating deeper wound cavities. Each round has a muzzle velocity of 1060 feet per second and muzzle energy of 337 foot-pounds. This ammunition is specifically designed for self-defense.

When you order this box of ammunition from Federal you get 20 defense rounds. That’s just enough to load your 9mm and spare magazine for personal protection, but not enough for sufficient training. Defense rounds produce greater felt recoil and more muzzle rise than target rounds, meaning you won’t be as accurate without trigger time with your chosen defense rounds. One day your life or the lives of your loved ones could depend on whether or not you took the time to train properly. Why risk it? Federal manufactures ammunition at their longtime factory in Anoka, Minnesota, according to exacting standards. Order now and get ready to train like you may one day be forced to fight.
