Description
The Federal 40 SW 180gr Syntech TSJ load is built for shooters who want more from their .40 S&W than typical factory ammunition delivers. Federal loads a 180 grain Syntech total synthetic jacket flat nose to a rated 1010 feet per second, producing about 408 foot-pounds of energy. Syntech Training Match is designed to match the point of impact and recoil of Federal HST duty loads, so practice sessions translate directly to your carry ammunition.

Built for Training and Practice

- Reliable feeding and ignition
- Consistent velocities for repeatable practice
- Quality brass cases
Buying ammunition by the box from the same production lot keeps velocity and point of impact consistent from one range trip to the next. Keep a record of the load you carry, check your ammunition for dents or loose bullets from time to time, and rotate your carry rounds so the ones in your firearm stay fresh. These simple habits help you get the full performance Federal builds into every cartridge.
Before you trust any new load, fire enough rounds through your firearm to confirm it feeds, fires and ejects reliably and that the point of impact matches your sights. Full-power loads produce more recoil and muzzle blast than typical range ammo, so practice with the Federal 40 SW 180gr Syntech TSJ until you are comfortable with it, and store the rest in a cool, dry place in the original box.
The .40 S&W was introduced in 1990 by Smith and Wesson and Winchester as a shorter version of the 10mm Auto that fits in 9mm-sized pistol frames. It quickly became a leading law enforcement cartridge and is still carried by many agencies and private citizens, offering more bullet weight than the 9mm with recoil that most shooters can manage well.

Why Choose Federal 40 SW Ammo
Shooters who need dependable 40 sw range ammo want consistent velocity and reliable function box after box. This Syntech Training Match load from Federal delivers that with quality brass cases, reliable primers and carefully measured powder charges, so practice sessions are spent building skill rather than chasing flyers.
The 40 sw 180 grain syntech bullet leaves the muzzle at about 1010 fps with roughly 408 ft-lbs of energy. The polymer-coated Syntech jacket eliminates metal-to-metal contact with the bore, reducing fouling and extending barrel life during high-volume training.
Federal Premium has made ammunition in Anoka, Minnesota since 1922 and is one of the largest ammunition makers in the country. Its Syntech Training Match line is built with the same quality controls as its premium hunting and law enforcement loads, and federal 40 sw ammo is trusted by shooters, hunters and agencies across the United States.
This ammunition is a good fit for owners of the Glock 22 and 23, SIG P320, Smith and Wesson M and P 40 and other .40 S&W pistols who want clean-shooting practice ammunition that matches their duty load. Always confirm your firearm is chambered for .40 S&W, wear eye and ear protection, and follow all federal, state and local laws.
