Federal

Hydra-Shok® ammunition has stood the test of time as a top choice for self-defense since its inception in 1989. Federal Premium® meticulously crafts each round, employing stringent manufacturing processes and thorough testing to ensure consistent and reliable performance in critical situations. The Low Recoil offerings further enhance the shooting experience by significantly reducing muzzle rise, thereby improving accuracy and target acquisition without compromising performance.

Designed for self-defense applications, these rounds deliver superb accuracy and overall ballistic performance. The Hydra-Shok® bullet features a notched copper jacket that effectively initiates and controls expansion upon impact, ensuring reliable terminal performance. With a center-post hollow-point design, these bullets provide consistent expansion, striking a balance between penetration and controlled expansion for optimal stopping power.

Available in caliber 38 Special, with a grain weight of 110, these rounds offer a muzzle velocity of 980 fps when tested from a 4-inch barrel length. Each package contains 20 rounds, providing ample ammunition for self-defense needs. Whether for personal protection or law enforcement use, Hydra-Shok® remains a trusted choice for those who prioritize reliability and effectiveness in defensive scenarios.
