40 S&W FEDERAL CHAMPION 180 GRAIN FMJ (200 ROUNDS)

Copper is an incredibly handy metal, and its cost soundly reflects that. That’s a shame for shooting enthusiasts, but they needn’t needn’t necessarily invest in brass if they can go without handloading. This round’s aluminum shell casing makes it relatively easy on the wallet, and that it’s lightweight and can’t rust are just added welcome benefits.

This round features a standard weight 180 grain projectile, ideal for training if that’s your preferred weight for your self-defense load as well. Don’t chamber this round in your EDC before you cruise the streets, though -- its full metal jacket’s inability to expand makes it less than optimal for the task. Instead enjoy it at the range, where it will improve your experience by promoting seamless functionality in a magazine-fed weapon by promoting uninterrupted feeding and slowing the rate of barrel fouling. This cartridge also features Federal’s non-corrosive Boxer primer and clean burning propellant.
