Description
The Federal Premium Personal Defense Hydra-Shok P45HS1 is a time-tested .45 ACP self-defense load built around the iconic 230 grain Hydra-Shok Jacketed Hollow Point bullet. Originally developed for law enforcement and trusted by generations of shooters, the Hydra-Shok is engineered to deliver consistent expansion, optimum penetration, and reliable terminal performance.
Loaded to a muzzle velocity of 900 fps and producing 414 ft lbs of muzzle energy, this load uses bullet weights and propellants chosen for the most efficient cycling and accuracy in subcompact handguns. Nickel-plated brass cases provide smooth feeding through a wide range of .45 ACP pistols, making this round equally at home for personal protection and range training.
Federal rates the P45HS1 for personal protection and home defense use. Each factory box contains 20 rounds, with the full case supplying 500 rounds (25 boxes) for high-volume practice and stockpile building.
Your purchase options:
- Box – 20 Rounds: One factory box of 20 rounds, ideal for a single defensive handgun or a carry rotation.
- Case – 500 Rounds (25 Boxes): A full case of 500 rounds across 25 boxes, the best value for sustained training and home defense practice.
