500 Rounds of 9mm Ammo by Federal Punch - 124gr JHP

Punching can be extremely helpful during a self-defense scenario. For proof, see martial arts.

But do you know what’s incomparably more effective at downing a threat than karate, tae kwon do, or kung fu? The path of the 9mm Luger.

Federal makes Punch ammunition so anyone can put their carry gun to good use. This round’s middleweight 124 grain bullet clears 4” barrel at a supersonic rate of 1,150 fps. It strikes with 360 ft lbs of energy at close range which, with correct aim, is more than enough to neutralize even the most crazed attacker.

The same is true for most 124 grain 9mm bullets, of course. What really makes a Punch load effective is its bullet: a well-made jacketed hollow point, which combines a soft lead core and strong copper jacket to deliver the ideal balance of penetration depth and rate of expansion.

Punch ammo’s other components are well made as well. Federal’s best brass won’t let a semi-automatic down, and their primers are made even more reliable by water-resistant sealant.
