The Federal GM9AP1 Gold Medal delivers match-grade precision for competitive shooters demanding consistent performance from their 9mm Luger ammunition. This 147-grain full metal jacket load maintains subsonic velocities while providing exceptional accuracy across multiple platforms.
What Makes This Different
Federal's Gold Medal line represents their premium match ammunition, engineered with tighter tolerances than standard target loads. The 147-grain bullet weight offers reduced felt recoil compared to lighter projectiles while maintaining stability through standard 1:10 twist barrels. Match-grade powder charges ensure velocity consistency shot after shot, with standard deviations typically under 15 fps.
Key Features
- 147-grain full metal jacket bullet for consistent ballistic performance
- Subsonic velocity reduces noise signature in suppressed applications
- Match-grade brass cases sized for reliable feeding and extraction
- Premium powder formulation delivers consistent velocities
- Boxer-primed cases suitable for reloading applications
- 50-round boxes provide convenient range quantities

This ammunition excels in competitive shooting disciplines where precision matters most. The heavier bullet weight maintains energy downrange while the subsonic velocity profile makes it ideal for suppressed pistol applications. Federal's quality control processes ensure each cartridge meets strict dimensional specifications for reliable function in match-grade and duty pistols alike.
