The Federal American Eagle IRT 9mm Luger 147gr 50-round box (Federal part no. AE9N2) is Indoor Range Training ammunition with a 147-grain full metal jacket bullet. Federal Ammunition fully encapsulates the reduced-lead bullet in copper, and the jacket eliminates any airborne lead hazard. A toxic metal-free primer adds to the cleaner firing line, and Federal calls the load the ballistic equivalent of self-defense rounds. The published muzzle velocity is 1000 fps from a 4-inch test barrel. It is a practical choice for shooters who train at indoor ranges.
