Right off the bat: Federal’s highest-quality components, and Federal’s most exacting specifications for quality. This cartridge has both. It features a total metal jacket flat nose bullet that (A) completely encapsulates its core in copper so as to eliminate lead vaporization on ignition, (B) is not suitable for ported barrels/compensators, and (C) has the ideal profile for shooting steel and other reactive targets (knocks ‘em around real good).
TMJ ammo like this is optimal for indoor ranges where lead gas has a tendency to linger. Federal’s Catalyst primers are entirely lead-free, so you’re really minimizing your lead exposure when you go with Gold Medal Action Pistol.
This round’s 900 fps muzzle velocity is relatively low for its 147 grain bullet. You can anticipate gentler recoil and rest assured you’re meeting power factor requirements (power factor: 132.3). Don’t know what a power factor is? Don’t worry about it. It won’t prevent you from enjoying this mighty fine target ammo to its fullest.
