Description
The Federal 9mm 138gr Syntech Defense load is built for shooters who want more from their 9mm Luger than typical factory ammunition delivers. Federal loads a 138 grain Syntech Defense segmented hollow point to a rated 1050 feet per second, producing about 338 foot-pounds of energy. Federal Syntech Defense uses a segmented hollow point that separates on impact into three fragments while the core continues to penetrate, creating multiple wound paths. Its Syntech polymer coating eliminates metal-on-metal contact in the bore, reducing fouling and barrel wear, and the load is designed to perform consistently through common barriers.

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 9mm 138gr Syntech Defense until you are comfortable with it, and store the rest in a cool, dry place in the original box.
The 9mm Luger was designed by Georg Luger in 1901 and is now the most popular handgun cartridge in the world, used by police agencies, militaries and private citizens. Its mild recoil, high magazine capacity and low cost make it ideal for high-volume practice, and it has become the most common chambering for pistol caliber carbines as well.
