Federal Ammo
Federal: Premium Ammunition
The Federal Premium lineup of shotshells and cartridges may be the industry’s most diverse. Whether you’re a waterfowler, big-game hunter, weekend clay buster, carry for self-defense or addicted to long-range, the company has a load tailored for you.
Federal is one of the world’s largest manufacturers of sporting ammunition today. Shooters know its products are reliable and perform—facts that have allowed the company to thrive for nearly 100 years. The longevity and reputation seemed far from certain in the beginning, though.
There’s no denying the company was founded, and remains headquartered, in Anoka, MN, although opinions differ as to the people—or person—and precise date that should be cited. Federal Cartridge and Machine Company was established on Sept. 15, 1916, Federal Cartridge Company came in 1918 and Federal Cartridge Corporation followed in 1922.
Federal Ammunition History
Brothers Louis and Harry Sherman, who both had experience working in the ammo industry, were behind the initial 1916 effort. Their intent was to produce shotshells and bicycles. The owners hoped to land a lucrative military ammo contract during World War I, but two-wheelers remained on the schedule—a distraction that may have contributed to the company’s lack of success.
The first shotshell came off the assembly line in January 1917, but it did little to aid the fledgling business. Reorganization under the Federal Cartridge Company name came the next year. The Sherman brothers abandoned most of the management duties to the staff shortly thereafter and bankruptcy followed in 1920.
Rebirth Of Greatness
A group of local investors purchased the machinery and plant in 1922 and named the company Federal Cartridge Corporation. Charles L. Horn, a law degree-holding manager who had worked at American Ball and Shot in Minneapolis, was hired to resurrect the business. The company’s official history labels it a “refounding,” although that’s gross understatement considering Horn’s vision and ability to make it a reality.
The bicycle scheme was abandoned. Shotshell manufacturing was the sole focus, although part of Horn’s success was an ability to pedal the company’s wares in unusual places. In 1923 he built a distribution system that included grocery stores, barber shops and gas stations—an approach forced partly because the larger manufacturers had exclusive contracts with traditional retailers.
Sales were strong and Horn knew shotshells weren’t the only game in town. To expand the line, Federal purchased American Cartridge Company in 1924—at the time-based in Kansas City, MO—and moved production and machinery Minnesota. Rimfire cartridges were soon being sold under the Federal name.
History of Ammunition Innovation
By 1928 Federal’s ability to innovate became apparent. That year it offered loads with non-corrosive primers. Copper-coated .22 bullets followed in 1931 and the following year Federal offered high-velocity loads. In 1937 it brought a new bullet design to market, one aerodynamically tuned to reduce drag and improve accuracy—the company called it “Airlines.”
The concept is foreign to modern shooters, but shotshell were one made in a variety of colors—depending on manufacturer and supply—regardless of size, until 1960. That’s when Federal introduced a safety-enhancing color-code that has become industry standard. In 1973 the company was the first to introduce steel shot. Along the way the company has developed many of the innovations we rely on today, and most recently introduced the high-performance .224 Valkyrie in 2018—with a projectile that maintains supersonic speed past 1,300 yards.
The cutting-edge products coming out of the company’s research and development team may get the headlines, but the forward-thinking approach is standard-operating procedure in every department. Federal Premium’s history of helping non-profit organizations, for example, began in 1934. Despite the Great Depression and the fact that most profitable corporations ignored worthwhile causes, Federal defied the trend and became the first nationwide sponsor of 4-H camps. Since then it has helped the conservation efforts of the National Wild Turkey Federation, National Rifle Association, Ducks Unlimited, Safari Club International and many others.
Introductions & Changes
Federal didn’t manufacture its first centerfire rifle and handgun cartridges until 1963. The familiar Federal Premium line hit the shelves in 1977, the same year Charles Horn retired. His son, William, took over the helm and spearheaded many of the efforts that kept Federal one of the industry’s foremost leaders.
In 1985 Federal was sold to a group of investors. It later passed through the hands of Blount, Lehman Brothers and finally found a home in defense-industry legend Alliant Techsystems (ATK).
Today it’s part of Vista Outdoor, the ATK sporting group of companies that was spun off into a separate entity in 2015. Better mission focus was one of the reasons for the amicable separation, and the added concentration on the needs of civilian shooters shows in Federal’s current lineup.
Federal Premium HST
Federal is deadly serious about the performance of its self-defense ammunition, and the dedication is on display in its relatively new HST line. The hollow-point bullet is designed to reduce or eliminate clogging as it passes through intermediate barriers, yet reliably expand on impact and retain weight. Overpenetration is minimized while fight-stopping power is retained. Add the nickel case, bullet profile tuned to avoid feeding problems with Federal’s unique primer and it makes for the kind reliable load needed for carry or home defense. Owners of .45 ACP, .40 S&W, 10 mm, .38 Spl. and .380 ACP handguns will want to take a close look at these loads.
Federal Premium Hydra-Shok
Hydra-Shok first hit the market in 1989, and it’s never surrendered its position as one of the premier self-defense cartridges. The unmistakable-looking bullet is a hollow-point, with a center post that aids in reliable expansion and weight retention. It’s available for a variety of handgun chamberings.
Federal Gold Medal Match
Combine Federal’s the near century of cartridge-tuning knowledge with the bullet-making wizardry at Sierra Bullets and you have the MatchKing. If you want to put those calipers to use on targets further than 100 yards—without hours behind a reloading press—look no further.
Federal Premium Sierra GameKing
Hunters need to deliver clean and ethical, one-shot stops, and these loads improve the ability to do so. Loaded with the Sierra Bullets line of soft-point GameKings, they deliver the exterior ballistics required to hit and target and all the expansion needed to fill that tag.
Federal Premium Prairie Storm
Federal was the first company to produce a shotshell designed for a specific hunting pursuit. It was turkey at first, but its Prairie Storm continues the tradition with 2 3/4- and 3-inch loads in different gauges, all tailored for upland bird hunters.
Federal American Eagle
And high-volume shooters aren’t ignored by Federal. Its pocketbook-friendly American Eagle line is available in a variety of different chamberings and loads. Whether your practicing or competing with a handgun or rifle, the odds are good you’ll find an American Eagle product to cover your needs.

Federal Syntech Defense 9mm 138 Grain SHP – 20 Rounds
$19.85Product Type Ammo Manufacturer Federal Brand Syntech Condition New Bullet Weight 138 Grain Bullet Type Segmented Hollow Point (SHP) Use Type home defense, Subsonic Casing Type Brass Quantity 20 Ammo Caliber 9mm Luger (9x19) Manufacturer SKU S9SJT1 Primer Type Boxer Magnetic No UPC Barcode 604544651072 Cost Per Round 99.2¢ per round You want your self-defense load to be two things: good for you and your your weapon, and bad for whomever poses a threat to you. This 9mm cartridge from Federal’s premium Syntech Defense label checks both of those boxes in bold, red ink.
This round’s 138 grain projectile wears a polymer jacket, so it will neither cake your firearm’s bore in metal residue that would loosen its accuracy nor create as much friction in its barrel as a traditional bullet could. Were you to exclusively run the Syntech jacket through your pistol or rifle, you would not have to replace its barrel as often. This round further features the Catalyst primer, which is reliable and lead-free -- far better for your respiratory health if you have to fire indoors.
This round’s bullet is a segmented hollow point. It does not expand in the traditional sense, but rather breaks apart to create four devastating wound channels. The core penetrates to a depth of up to 18 inches, while its three segments each inflict their own 6+ inch wound channels. Such a bullet performs essentially the same whether it must pierce thick fabric or not. Place such a bullet in a threat’s torso, and the next step will be to phone the authorities.Customer Reviews

Federal Shorty Shotshell 12 Gauge 1-3/4" #4 Buckshot – 100 Rounds
$99.85Product Type Ammo Manufacturer Federal Condition New Bullet Weight 11/16 oz. Bullet Type #4 Buck Use Type hunting or defending your home Quantity 100 Ammo Caliber 12 Gauge Manufacturer SKU SH129 4B Shot Material Lead Shell Length 1-3/4" Magnetic No UPC Barcode 50004544651433 Cost Per Round 99.8¢ per round It’s the Shorty Shotshell! This 12 Gauge shotshell by Federal of Minnesota has something very special going for it: It is only 1-3/4” long. If your pump-action shotgun is designed to feed such short shells (or it has an aftermarket adapter that lets it feed such short shells), then this ammo will effectively increase its mag capacity by over 60 percent!
This shell also offers gentler recoil thanks to its 11/16 ounce shot column and 1,200 fps muzzle velocity. Teaching a younger or recoil-averse shooter how to shoot and hunt can be easier when the ammo kicks a little more gently, and maintaining your aim on the target is also easier when you don’t have as much muzzle flip to compensate for in between trigger pulls.
But is a Shorty Shotshell weak? Heavens no! All together, this round’s 15 pellets of #4 buck tear out of the muzzle over 950 ft lbs of kinetic energy. That exceeds the minimum threshold for self-defense by about 360%, and 15 individual shot pellets give you a higher chance of striking the target when your aim wasn’t perfect.
This shell’s dense-patterning 0.24” diameter shot pellets do retain substantially less momentum than 00 buck. That limits it to deer hunting at closer ranges, although you may appreciate #4 buck’s lower chance of piercing multiple sheets of drywall if you’re doing all you can to avoid collateral damage in a home defense scenario. -
Federal Shorty Shotshell 12 Gauge 1-3/4" 1 oz. Rifled Slug – 100 Rounds
$99.85Product Type Ammo Manufacturer Federal Condition New Bullet Weight 1 oz. Bullet Type Rifled Slug Use Type hunting Quantity 100 Ammo Caliber 12 Gauge Manufacturer SKU SH129 RS Shell Length 1-3/4" Magnetic No UPC Barcode 50004544651945 Cost Per Round 99.8¢ per round Federal Premium’s Shorty Shotshell series 12 Gauge ammunition really is something else! This diminutive shotshell measures a mere 1-3/4” long, yet its accuracy and energy are both on par with many full-size shells!
This shell is loaded with a one-ounce rifled slug. The solid lead projectile’s rifled design does not impart rotational stability; it simply enables safe passage through a smoothbore barrel and its choke tube. Its nose cavity forces the slug to flatten down, maximize energy transfer, and gouge out a wider, more injurious wound cavity during penetration. And because the shell’s low-fouling propellant charge delivers a reliable muzzle velocity of 1,200 fps, the 0.110 G1 BC slug consistently conserves at least 1,000 ft lbs of energy until it reaches 66 yards.
Federal didn’t shortchange this short shell in terms of quality. You can trust its primer to light up exactly when you tell it to, and its low-brass hull to feed and extract like a charm. Take care that semi-autos generally don’t cycle short shells, and some pump-actions need special adapters before they can run ammo like this. -
Federal American Eagle 7.62x39 124 Grain FMJ - 500 Rounds
$499.85Product Type Ammo Manufacturer Federal Brand American Eagle Condition New Bullet Weight 124 Grain Bullet Type Full Metal Jacket (FMJ) Use Type plinking at the range Casing Type Brass Quantity 500 Ammo Caliber 7.62X39 Manufacturer SKU A76239A Primer Type Boxer Magnetic No UPC Barcode 50029465085273 Cost Per Round $1 per round If you opt to feed your AK with ammo that's shelf-stable, reloadable, and non-corrosive then look no further than these 7.62x39mm rounds from Federal's American Eagle brand. Unlike surplus imports, these American-made cartridges use brass casings that can be processed and hand-loaded after expenditure. Each casing has a clean-igniting Boxer primer that won't harm your barrel with metal-deteriorating elements. Federal guards the primer's edges with water-repelling sealant in order to increase dependable storage life. Each casing is crimped to the knurled cannelure of a full metal jacket (FMJ) bullet.
This type of crimp point prevents the bullet from being pushed back or dislodged which could otherwise cause a failure to fire or loss in accuracy. The FMJ projectile itself weighs in at 124 grains for compatibility with most other AK and SKS ammo on the market, resulting in consistent point-of-impact and relatable recoil. The bullet's true copper jacket and basic lead core preclude any sparking or penetration that might get the ammo banned at an indoor range, allowing you to shoot your favorite rifle wherever you wish. This 500-round bulk case is best used for practice and drills against training targets.

Federal Tactical LE 12 Gauge 1 oz. HP Rifled Slug – 250 Rounds

Product Type Ammo Manufacturer Federal Brand Hydra-Shok Condition New Bullet Weight 1 oz. Bullet Type Rifled Slug Use Type hunting Quantity 250 Ammo Caliber 12 Gauge Manufacturer SKU LE127 RS Shell Length 2-3/4" Magnetic No UPC Barcode 50029465018684 Cost Per Round $1.02 per round Federal loads their Tactical Law Enforcement line of shotshells for – you guessed it – law enforcement professionals. That begs the $10,000 question: Can normal Joes buy this ammo, too? Yes! No badge required if you want to order this case of cop-grade 12 Gauge slug ammo.
This shell’s one-ounce Hydra-Shok rifled* hollow point slug tears out of a 30” barrel at a rate of 1,300 fps. It will hit a 25-yard target with 1,277 ft lbs of energy, which is roughly five times the recommended minimum for personal protection. The solid lead slug’s nose cavity will supply the terminal expansion which (A) creates a more injurious wound cavity, and (B) reduces the chance of potentially dangerous over-penetration (although we cannot guarantee so powerful a projectile will not pass through a human-size target all the same).
This round excels at the FBI test protocol for self-defense ammo. When fired into bare ballistic gelatin, the slug penetrates to a depth of 14.25”, expands to a diameter of 0.981” and retains 99.59% of its weight. If the ballistic gel is shielded by heavy clothing, the slug penetrates to a depth of 15.50”, expands to a diameter of 0.924” and retains 98.95% of its weight. Even safety glass – the toughest barrier on the FBI test protocol – only causes this slug to lose 47.84% of its overall weight!
This is a low-recoil round. That will reduce the amount of muzzle rise you have to compensate for after firing each shot, so you’ll be able to direct a more rapid and accurate stream of fire at the threat. However, we cannot guarantee that low-recoil ammo will reliably cycle all semi-auto shotguns.
*Rifled slugs are designed for smoothbore barrels only. -

Wow! Seems like you have all the ammo you need to throw your weight around at your upcoming 3-Gun competition!
Hold on a second. Upon closer inspection, it appears you are missing one key thing. Federal Premium Action Shotgun ammo, which is designed for competition (and, needless to say, heaps of fun for plinking to boot).
This shell’s not made for hunting, but that didn’t stop Federal from arming it with the same precision-enhancing TruBall they developed for that application. The aptly named spherical plastic TruBall occupies the cavity between the base of the slug and the front of the wad. It gives articulation to the column, thus enabling the slug to conform precisely to the alignment of the bore. The TruBall doesn’t impart gyroscopic stability to the slug, but it sure as heck does help it scream out of the barrel in a straight, tight-groupable line.
This ammo’s loaded with rifled slugs, mind you. Perfect for a smoothbore. Terrible for a rifled bore. Great for all magazine-fed and other types of shotguns as well! -
Federal Punch 9mm 124 Grain JHP – 20 Rounds

Then look no further than this 9mm cartridge from Federal’s Punch line of ammunition. Its 124 grain bullet packs a mighty wallop indeed, and it’s an intensely dependable round on top of that.
A jacketed hollow point projectile reliably penetrates a soft tissue target as well as any clothing or other light barriers that may shield it. This bullet’s jacket in particular directs highly controlled expansion, as its structural skives weaken it to yield a symmetrical six-pointed mushroom. The bullet’s supersonic muzzle velocity conveys a staggering amount of energy to deliver on target, but its ability to expand will help to prevent dangerous overpenetration.
This round features a nickel plated brass shell casing. In addition to being reloadable it is corrosion resistant, reflective for easier handling in the dark, and low friction to help a semi-auto feed and extract. Federal took the added precaution of sealing this round’s primer, so you can count on it to light up precisely when it’s most needed. -

It’s no more effective at defending you than a small rock would be … until it’s loaded with the right ammo, that is.
Your personal safety’s too valuable to experiment with. Instead of questionable ammo from somewhere lame, buy Federal Premium’s unquestionably high-quality 9mm cartridges from our cool website.
It’s named “Punch,” but this round does something far more powerful than that. Its 115 grain bullet gains 1,180 fps muzzle velocity and 356 ft lbs muzzle energy out of a 4” barrel – or much more, in the case of a PCC. Its strong, drawn copper jacket and alloyed lead core make the Punch JHP robust enough to defeat common barriers. Arrival within soft tissue forces the bullet’s jacket to split open, peeling back six flat-tipped petals as it gives way to broad expansion.
This ammo is supersonic, noncorrosive, reloadable, and fresh out of Federal’s Minnesota factory, and it features a little bonus: sealed primers, for added peace of mind in a world that is 71% water. -

Its 150 grain projectile has got a full metal jacket for a cleaner bore at the end of the day, and it’s also got a boat tail that raises its ballistic coefficient for better wind drift resistance, a flatter trajectory, and greater downrange velocity. Federal’s brand new brass casing will afford you multiple opportunities to handload, and their consistent primers will have each hammer stroke producing the exact same result with every shot.

The 55 grain soft point bullet delivers consistent accuracy, and also reaches 200 yards with 700 ft lbs of varmint-flipping kinetic energy. The bullet’s bare lead tip and thin copper jacket enable it to undergo fast, expansion. Terminal ballistics like that annihilates coyote and woodchucks no sweat, but often leads to insufficiently deep penetration for medium game.

But even if you have as much intention of competing as you have of sticking your hand in a hungry bear’s mouth, you will still love these sharpshooters.
This shell utilizes a component Federal devised to enhance their premium hunting ammo’s precision: the TruBall. It truly is a ball – a plastic one, no less – and it sits in the cavity formed by the concave slug base and wad head. It is a joint like the one in your hip, and it gives the slug the ability to pitch and yaw so as to attain peak alignment with the bore. So well aligned a projectile can’t help but file downrange like a laser!
This moderate-recoiling smoothbore 12 Gauge ammo features very rigid brass-plated steel heads and the same kind of roll crimp hulls. These give the ammo the fortitude it needs to function correctly in all shotguns, magazine fed and otherwise. -

Good choice for home defense
-
After reading a number of internet "expert" opinions and watching some You Tubers pontificate on the subject the consensus was these shells are the best for home defense use. Testing these vs. other sporting 00 rounds the 'Flite Control wadding does indeed make for a tighter group. I'm using them in a Stoeger side-by-side coach gun but I'm sure they'd do just as well in my Mossberg 500.

Best 12gauge ammo made
-
This is THE 12gauge round for serious work. The tightest patterns Ive ever seen at 25 to 45 yards in a shotgun. It hits like a sledgehammer too. The 8pellet is actually my all time favorite round for 00 but the 8 pellet is tops too. The best 13gauge ammo ever made was the LE1321B but it sadly is no longer made.

Federal Shorty Shotshell 12 Gauge 1-3/4" 1oz. Rifled Slug – 10 Rounds
$11.85Product Type Ammo Manufacturer Federal Condition New Bullet Weight 1 oz. Bullet Type #1 Shot Use Type hunting Quantity 10 Ammo Caliber 12 Gauge Manufacturer SKU SH129 RS Shell Length 1-3/4" Magnetic No UPC Barcode 604544651454 Cost Per Round $1.18 per round The Battle of Thermopylae looks one-sided on paper. How could a team of about 6,000 Spartans possibly hold off a crushing wave of hundreds of thousands -- possibly millions -- of Persian soldiers? Well, as it turned out, a devout band of brother soldiers who knew the lay of their own land amounted to a lot more than invaders marching to the crack of a whip ever could. For every Spartan that stood, five Persians would fall.
The message to take from this is that bigger doesn’t always mean better. That holds true for Federal’s Shorty Shotshell as well. Despite being only 1.75” long, this 12 Gauge shell’s one ounce rifled slug issues out of the muzzle at a whopping 1,200 fps. That gives it the straight trajectory and the wallop on impact needed to take care of most any job you could ask a slug to do.
If your shotgun can handle mini shells, you’ll love how the Shorty will effective double its magazine’s capacity. Its low recoil is valuable for several other applications as well. This shell’s quality is full Federal tier, complete with a durable hull, clean burning propellant, and primer that you can count on in any situation. -

These rimmed .30-30 Winchester cartridges from Federal's Fusion lineup represent proof of performance with flat-nosed bullets that are safe for use in lever-action rifles. The 150-grain Fusion projectile follows a soft point format with an exposed nose and strong copper jacket that has been artfully tapered to a sleek, aerodynamic shape. Drag resistance is again furthered but the bullet's boat tail taper which results in very tight groups.
As a Fusion load, the bullet's jacket is bonded to its lead core so the body remains intact during expansion. This allows the explosively expanding bullet to penetrate deeply into the vital areas of a deer or feral hog with no premature loss in momentum. Each bullet is crimped into a reloadable brass casing at its lightly imprinted cannelure, creating a lock that preserves accuracy despite jostling recoil vibrations. The casing has a non-corrosive Boxer primer installed at its base with a light amount of sealant which prevents moisture from ruining your perfect shot.

This cartridge features a 100 grain soft point projectile. Its sleek profile ensures that the bullet conserves at least 1,000 ft lbs of kinetic energy until it streaks past approximately 340 yards. Its rigid copper-alloy jacket keeps the bullet intact enough to penetrate deeply into a quarry’s torso. Its unjacketed tip enables the core to produce rapid deformation that punches a deleterious hole through dense muscle tissue. A potent combination of features that will end any good marksman’s hunt on a successful note!
These Minnesotan-made cartridges promise problem-free functionality thanks to their flawless brass cases, sensitive primers and consistent charges of low-fouling propellant. Is this ammo reloadable? You betcha!
