45 ACP has gained a popular reputation for it's reliability and ease of use for your carry pistol. The jacketed hollow point bullet is coated in a harder metal to increase bullet strength and less fouling in the barrel. The hollow point cavity causes extreme expansion and fragmentation on impact so that you carry with purpose.

Originally requested by the FBI, the Hydra-Shok was patented in 1988 and engineered to cause more terminal damage than anything made before it. Federal Premium Ammunition is located in Anoka, Minnesota, and a part of Vista Outdoor Inc. Get this popular ammo before it's gone!

Ballistic Gel Test

Ballistic gel test for 45 ACP - 165 Grain Hydra-Shok JHP - Federal Premium Personal Defense - 200 Rounds

Image showing Federal .45 ACP (Auto) 165 Grain rounds fired into ballistic gel

Ballistics Test Summary

We test fired five rounds of .45 ACP (Auto) Federal 165 gr Hydra Shok into synthetic ballistic gelatin to observe its expansion and penetration characteristics. The ammo was fired from a Kahr CW45 pistol at a distance of 10 feet. A four-layer barrier of heavy fabric was placed in front of the gelatin to simulate clothing.

The complete data for this load from our test can be found on the chart below. The photo slider displays the expanded bullets that were retrieved from the gel. Pictured below is a high speed video that shows the bullet entering the gel at approximately 10,000 frames per second. The diagrams at the bottom of the page should give you an idea of how this load compares to other .45 ACP (Auto) loads.
