20rds – 9mm Federal Punch 115gr. JHP Ammo Details

Born too late to chart out the world. Born too soon to explore the stars. Born at exactly the right time to order Federal Premium Personal Defense Punch 9mm Luger ammunition from AmmoToGo.com.

Federal has a deserved reputation for making great ammo. They turn high-grade raw materials into high-quality components at their factory in Anoka, MN, and they load those with careful attention to uniformity. “Goes bang when you shoot it,” as the old ammo salesman’s saying goes.

This round’s 115 grain bullet is light, and its maximum chamber pressure is within standard range. That doesn’t stop the jacketed hollow point from striking a close-range target with around 98% as much kinetic energy as a heavier Punch 124 grain load, though.

The Punch JHP has long fault lines built into its jacket’s rim. These help the bullet open up wide following impact at a wide range of velocities, which is precisely what you want it to do (and what the threat specifically doesn’t want it to do).

Sealed primers aren’t necessarily a gamechanger, but they’re a good thing for everyday carry ammo to have. They’re welcome added protection against humidity, fog, light rain, sweat, and other wet threats to explosives.
