Federal .45 ACP Syntech Action Pistol Total 220gr JFN Ammo is designed for competitive shooting sports. It features a Total Synthetic Jacket (TSJ) bullet that prevents metal-on-metal contact between the bullet and barrel, eliminating copper and lead fouling while extending barrel life. The flatter nose profile provides better energy transfer to steel targets. This ammunition is loaded to meet power factor requirements for competition and offers reduced felt recoil. With clean-burning propellants and a lead-free Catalyst primer, it provides reliable ignition and minimizes residue, allowing for longer shooting sessions with less frequent cleaning.
