Question on Federal 40 S&W Load
Re Online 40 S&W
Ammunition Test
Dear Sirs: I’ve enjoyed your incomparable reporting for a while and often suggest to friends to subscribe. I used the “40 S&W Ammunition Test” article that recommends the “Federal Syntech 40 S&W 165-Grain AE 40SJ1” to buy that self-defense round. I was curious why the box stated “Syntech Range” on it, so I contacted Federal as to whether it’s a range/target or self-defense round. Their reply from August 14 read, “Bill, Thank you for contacting us. The AE40SJ1 is strictly a target round. We do not advertise or test it for defense purposes. We do have a Syntech coated defense round S40ST1. This is a 175g Segmented Hollow Point. But the part # you provided is not a defense load. Thanks, Federal.”
