Frequently Asked Questions
How does Federal Punch perform compared to other defensive hollow-point loads?
Federal Punch is designed to out-perform comparably priced defensive ammunition by combining a skived jacket with a soft lead core, producing reliable and consistent expansion across a wide range of real-world conditions. Independent gel testing shows Punch consistently meets FBI penetration standards (12–18 inches), making it a highly competitive option against more expensive premium loads.
Is this ammunition compatible with all .40 S&W pistols?
Yes, Federal Punch .40 S&W 165 Grain JHP is designed to feed reliably in any standard .40 S&W semi-automatic pistol, including popular models from Glock, Smith & Wesson, Sig Sauer, Springfield Armory, and others. The nickel-plated brass case and consistent geometry promote smooth feeding even in tighter-tolerance firearms.
How should I store unused Federal Punch ammunition?
Store Federal Punch ammunition in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and extreme temperature fluctuations. The sealed primer helps protect against moisture ingress, but keeping rounds in their original box inside an ammo can or a climate-controlled safe will maximize long-term reliability and shelf life.
