Federal S45SJT1 Syntech Defense Segmented Jacketed Hollow Point 205 Grain .45 ACP/Auto 970 fps
$25.35 - $537.55
Federal's 9mm Luger Syntech Defense ammunition offers innovative technology for personal protection. This 138-grain Semi-Jacketed Hollow Point (SJHP) round features a polymer-encapsulated Syntech bullet that prevents metal-on-metal contact in the bore, eliminating copper and lead fouling while extending barrel life. The exclusive lead-free Catalyst primer provides reliable, consistent ignition. With a muzzle velocity of 1050 fps and muzzle energy of 338 ft-lbs, this round delivers effective stopping power. The clean-burning propellants minimize residue and fouling, reducing the frequency of cleaning required. Syntech Defense ammo also offers reduced perceived recoil and minimizes splash-back on steel targets, making it ideal for both self-defense and range training.
