Federal’s all-new Syntech® Defense delivers advanced terminal performance through an innovative segmented hollow-point design. Upon impact, the bullet separates into three individual segments while a solid core continues to penetrate deeply. The core achieves 12 to 18 inches of penetration in bare ballistic gel—meeting a critical self-defense standard and setting a new benchmark for performance in its category.
The three separating petals create additional wound channels, each extending more than six inches, enhancing overall terminal effectiveness. Built on Federal’s proven Syntech platform, the advanced polymer jacket eliminates lead and copper fouling while significantly reducing heat and friction in the barrel. An exclusive Catalyst® primer ensures hot, exceptionally reliable ignition without the use of lead.
