The Federal P40HS3 Premium Personal Defense ammunition delivers proven stopping power through its 165-grain Hydra-Shok jacketed hollow point design. This 40 S&W load combines controlled expansion with deep penetration for reliable personal protection performance. Federal's time-tested Hydra-Shok technology features a unique center-post design that initiates expansion while maintaining structural integrity through barriers.

What Makes This Different

The Hydra-Shok bullet design sets this ammunition apart from standard hollow points through its patented center-post construction. This post acts as a wedge to drive expansion while the notched jacket ensures consistent mushrooming across various velocities. The 165-grain weight provides an optimal balance between velocity and momentum in the 40 S&W platform, delivering approximately 1130 fps muzzle velocity with 468 ft-lbs of energy.
