Federal Syntech Defense .45 ACP 205gr SJHP Handgun Ammunition

Federal Syntech Defense .45 ACP 205gr Segmented Jacketed Hollow Point ammunition is engineered for demanding personal defense firearms. This load provides consistent ballistic performance, offering a reliable option for those carrying a concealed carry pistol or other defensive handguns.

Terminal Performance and Projectile Design

The core of the Syntech Defense projectile is designed for deep penetration, consistently achieving 12 to 18 inches in bare ballistic gel. Upon impact, the hollow-point bullet segments into three distinct petals, each creating additional secondary channels over six inches deep. This design contributes to effective energy transfer and controlled expansion.

Syntech Polymer Jacket Technology

Utilizing Federal’s Syntech advanced polymer jacket, this ammunition significantly reduces lead and copper fouling within the barrel. This reduction in friction and heat contributes to extended barrel life and simplified post-shooting maintenance. For training and practice, its polymer jacket also helps preserve steel targets at the shooting range equipment commonly found. The exclusive Catalyst primer ensures reliable ignition, providing consistent performance shot after shot.
