PUNCH

Any cartridge should be able to deliver a knockout blow. That was the mindset that guided the development of Punch™ ammunition, and what keeps pushing us to develop more loads like this year’s new 30 Super Carry and 22 WMR. Like all Punch offerings, they deliver on the promise to provide the penetration and expansion needed in real-world self-defense situations.

Punch Rimfire

Punch Personal Defense 22 LR and 22 WMR loads use a nickel-plated lead-core bullet propelled at extreme velocities to hit critical penetration depths through short-barrel handguns. With 12 to 16 inches of penetration in ballistics gelatin, both loads exceed the depths of centerfire cartridges including 25 Auto and 32 Auto. Combined with stringent function testing that ensures the most consistent ignition and cycling, Punch ammunition makes rimfire a legitimate defense option.

Syntech Defense

Syntech ® changed the range forever. Now the technology is revolutionizing protection as well. Syntech Defense™ provides dynamic terminal performance with a hollowpoint bullet that separates into three segments and a deep-penetrating core on impact. The core penetrates 12 to 18 inches through bare ballistics gel and heavy clothing—a critical benchmark in self-defense situations and the best terminal performance of any round in its class. The petals create three secondary wound channels, each more than 6 inches deep, adding to the terminal effect.

TRAIN + PROTECT

Honor the American birthright to bear arms. Federal® Train + Protect uses the VHP bullet design to provide precise, practical performance at the range, and instant reliable expansion on impact. Now available in 10mm Auto.
