The Federal P9HS1 Premium Personal Defense ammunition delivers proven stopping power through its 124-grain Hydra-Shok jacketed hollow point design. This cartridge features Federal's time-tested expanding bullet technology that has served law enforcement and civilians for decades. Each round provides consistent expansion and penetration characteristics essential for personal protection applications.
What Makes This Different
The Hydra-Shok bullet design incorporates a unique center-post feature that initiates reliable expansion upon impact while maintaining structural integrity. Unlike standard ball ammunition that tends to over-penetrate, this hollow point configuration transfers maximum energy to the target. Federal's premium brass cases and carefully measured powder charges ensure consistent velocities and reliable ignition across temperature extremes.
Key Features
- 124-grain jacketed hollow point bullet with center-post expansion design
- Nickel-plated brass cases resist corrosion and aid smooth feeding
- Low-flash powder reduces muzzle signature in low-light conditions
- Boxer-primed cases allow for reloading when desired
- Consistent 1,120 fps muzzle velocity from 4-inch barrel
- Premium components manufactured to Federal's quality standards
- Compatible with all 9mm Luger chambered firearms
This ammunition performs reliably in both compact carry pistols and full-size service weapons. The 124-grain weight provides excellent accuracy in most 9mm firearms while generating manageable recoil for quick follow-up shots. Federal's quality control processes ensure consistent point of impact, making this ammunition suitable for both training and defensive use. The nickel-plated cases cycle smoothly through semi-automatic actions and extract cleanly.
