Product Overview
The Federal American Eagle Brass 9mm 147 Grain 50-Rounds FMJ is a premium, full-metal jacket training and target ammunition designed for the discerning shooter. This load features a heavier 147-grain projectile, offering a distinct ballistic profile compared to standard 115 or 124-grain options. It is an ideal choice for handgun owners seeking reliable, consistent ammunition for high-volume range sessions, competitive shooting practice, or sound-suppressed firearm use. Manufactured by Federal, one of the most trusted names in the industry, this 50-round box provides excellent value for dedicated marksmen who prioritize quality and performance in their training regimen.
Key Features
- 147-Grain Full Metal Jacket (FMJ): The heavier projectile weight offers a smoother, less snappy recoil impulse and a subsonic velocity profile, making it exceptionally pleasant to shoot and ideal for use with suppressors.
- Reliable Boxer-Primed Brass Cases: Manufactured with high-quality, reloadable brass casings and consistent primers to ensure dependable ignition and extraction shot after shot, minimizing range stoppages.
- Optimized for Consistency: Federal’s stringent manufacturing controls guarantee uniform powder charges and bullet seating, resulting in tight velocity standard deviations and enhanced shot-to-shot predictability.
- 50-Round Packaging: The convenient 50-round box reduces packaging waste and frequency of box changes at the range, allowing for longer, more focused training sessions.
- American Eagle Brand Assurance: As Federal’s flagship value line, American Eagle delivers proven factory-loaded performance at an accessible price point, without compromising on core quality.
- Full Metal Jacket Design: The FMJ bullet construction provides excellent feeding reliability in semi-automatic pistols and is the standard for target shooting, helping to protect your barrel’s rifling.
Performance & Applications
This specific 9mm loading excels in several practical shooting scenarios. First, for suppressed firearm use, the 147-grain bullet is inherently subsonic from most barrel lengths, eliminating the disruptive sonic crack and maximizing sound reduction for a quieter shooting experience. Second, it is a top choice for competitive shooting practice, particularly in disciplines like USPSA or IDPA. The heavier grain weight and manageable recoil allow for faster, more controlled follow-up shots and realistic practice that closely mirrors match conditions. Finally, for general marksmanship development, the consistent performance and softer felt recoil help shooters concentrate on fundamental skills like trigger control and sight alignment without excessive fatigue during extended training.
