The Federal P357SHC1 Premium delivers consistent terminal performance with its 180-grain solid core synthetic flat nose design. This specialized ammunition addresses the need for reliable penetration and controlled expansion in 357 Magnum applications. Federal's Premium line represents their top-tier manufacturing standards with match-grade components.
What Makes This Different
The solid core synthetic flat nose construction provides superior weight retention compared to traditional hollow points. This design maintains structural integrity through barriers while delivering consistent wound channels. The 180-grain weight maximizes momentum transfer, making it heavier than standard 125-grain or 158-grain loads. Federal's quality control ensures consistent velocities and pressures across the entire production run.
