50rds – 40 S&W Federal Personal Defense Hydra-Shok 165gr. JHP Ammo

Federal Ammunition 165 Grain Jacketed Hollow-Point (JHP) Ammo Details

The Hydra-Shok may no longer be Federal Premium’s most high-tech jacketed hollow point, but what made it effective for personal protection back in the ‘80s still makes it effective today. If you want to stock up on good 40 S&W for self-defense, here is your golden opportunity!

This round’s 165 grain Hydra-Shok JHP features a unique center post in its nose cavity. It is designed to compliment the notched copper jacket’s ability to promote reliable terminal expansion over a wide range of impact velocities. The Hydra-Shok lacks a bonded jacket, yet it is still a durable enough bullet to defeat the kinds of barriers that might separate you from the threat.

Federal enhances functionality in all semi-automatic firearms by loading this ammunition with nickel-plated brass cases. The low-friction cases present a lower risk of creating a jam that could leave you vulnerable. Nickel also resists corrosion better than brass, which will help keep this ammo safer while it’s chilling in storage.
