Federal 40 S and W 180gr FMJ – Proven 40 S&W Range Ammo, 1000 fps, 100 Rounds

Description

The Federal 40 S and W 180gr FMJ load is built for shooters who want more from their 40 S&W than typical factory ammunition delivers. Federal loads a 180 grain full metal jacket to a rated 1000 feet per second, producing about 400 foot-pounds of energy. Federal American Eagle is the company’s everyday training line, built to shoot clean and feed reliably so you can put real volume through your rifle or pistol without paying premium-hunting-load prices. It is meant for practice, qualification and plinking rather than hunting or defense.

Why Choose the Federal 40 S and W 180gr FMJ

• 180 grain full metal jacket bullet
• Rated 1000 fps and 400 ft-lbs
• Brass cases with reliable primers
• Affordable, consistent practice ammo
• 100 rounds per box, item AE40R100

Built for Training and Practice

• Affordable load for regular range 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 S and W 180gr FMJ 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.
