Description

The Federal Syntech Defense 9mm 138GR Segmented HP takes Syntech’s clean-shooting tech and flips it into a personal defense powerhouse. On impact, the segmented hollow point splits into three separate petals, each carving more than 6″ of wound channel, while the core drives 12–18″ through bare gel or heavy clothing — hitting the FBI’s critical penetration benchmarks.

Federal pairs this fight-stopping design with the same benefits that made Syntech famous on the range: a polymer jacket that eliminates lead and copper fouling, reduces barrel heat, and keeps your pistol running cleaner for longer. Add in the exclusive Catalyst™ lead-free primer for reliable ignition, and you’ve got a defensive load that blends science with stopping power.

? Why Syntech Defense Wins:

• Segmented Hollow Point – Three petals + one core for maximum disruption.

• Deep Penetration – Core drives 12–18″ in gel and through heavy clothing.

• Multiple Wound Channels – Each segment cuts an additional 6″+ track.

• Polymer Jacket Tech – Cleaner shooting, less friction, longer barrel life.

• Catalyst™ Lead-Free Primer – Reliable, hot ignition every time.

• Best in Class Performance – Federal’s benchmark-setting defensive 9mm.
