Federal Premium Syntech Defense combines showroom-clean performance and commanding stopping power into the ultimate 9mm personal protection package – and it’s an excellent pick for suppressed pistols!
“Syntech” is Federal’s proprietary polymer jacketing material. They encapsulate this round’s bullet’s lead core in the stuff, which is why it leaves behind zero metal fouling of any sort. Syntech also generates considerably less friction while it glides against steel, so it’ll help your barrel last longer, too.
The segmented hollow point operates on a very different principle than a conventional JHP. It is designed to break apart into four individual pieces on impact: its “core,” which can pierce ballistic gelatin (a material with similar characteristics to soft tissue) to a depth of up to 18 inches; and its “petals,” which split off in three different directions to inflict just as many 6 inch wound channels. Very harmful stuff, right there.
One hundred thirty-eight grains isn’t a normal bullet weight for the 9mm, but it cycles a semi-auto and ensures subsonic muzzle velocity all the same.
