Federal Syntech Defense 9mm 138gr Segmented Hollow Point

Federal Syntech Defense 9mm Ammunition

Federal's Syntech Defense ammunition represents a significant advancement in self-defense ammunition design, combining proven terminal performance with the cleanliness benefits of polymer-coated bullets.

Terminal Performance

The Syntech Defense bullet is engineered to separate into three segments upon impact, with a deep-penetrating core that achieves 12 to 18 inches of penetration through bare ballistics gel and heavy clothing—a critical benchmark in self-defense situations. The three petals create secondary wound channels, each exceeding 6 inches in depth, adding substantial terminal effect. This design delivers the best terminal performance in its class.

Clean-Shooting Design

Like all Syntech ammunition, Federal's advanced polymer jacket eliminates the traditional copper and lead fouling that accumulates in your barrel. This means:

• Extended barrel life through reduced heat and friction
• Less frequent cleaning required to maintain accuracy
• Reduced splash-back on steel targets
• Minimized residue from clean-burning powders

Reliable Ignition

Federal's Catalyst lead-free primer provides hot, extremely reliable ignition without compromise. You get consistent performance shot after shot.
