The Federal Premium 9mm Luger +P 147gr Solid Core Synthetic Flat Nose (brand part no. P9SHC1) is built around an extremely hard, flat-nose lead bullet designed to hold together while punching through bone, delivering high weight retention and deep penetration. Federal Ammunition coats the bullet with Syntech polymer jacket technology, which reduces the barrel friction and leading that plague traditional hard-cast lead bullets. Loaded to +P pressure in nickel-plated brass, this round pushes extra velocity out of the solid-core design. In handgun ammunition for shooters who want a hard-hitting, barrel-friendly 9mm, this is Federal’s Solid Core loading.
