Federal Ammunition 115 Grain Jacketed Hollow-Point (JHP) Ammo Details

This 9mm cartridge by Federal features a 115 grain Hi-Shok projectile. At its very essence, the Hi-Shok is a Hydra-Shok but with one single omission: the center post that keeps its nose cavity better able to avoid jamming up with debris before expansion can take place. It’s still in every other way an exceptionally potent projectile, however, with a deep cavity to produce wide expansion and a notched jacket that serves to control said expansion. This affordable round provides a shooters on any budget with not only the means to protect themselves, but also to train thoroughly with their self-defense load as well.

Federal’s ability to so consistently provide cost-effective solutions for all manners of shooting enthusiasts derives from their nearly entire century of research into best loading practices and technology. It’s certainly great peace of mind, knowing that an affordable Federal product is still a fine Federal product in full. This round’s other components are all exceptional for their price tag, and totally deserving of being purchased by the case.

    I bought some bulk JHP and FMJ 9mm rounds. The price , communication and delivery were great! I live in a Blue state with all kinds of restrictions and had absolutely no issues with Ammo To Go. I will be back for more.

    Great ammo for Glock 19 or 34 (with steel guide for point control). Runs clean with no misfires. If you use the +p put in a tungsten guide for better point.

    I tried 5 different brands of 115 gr. JHP ammo in my Glock 43. This ammo shot the best groups at 15 yds. It's my 'go to' 9mm load for self defense.
