Lt. Col. Jeff Cooper had this to say about the .25 ACP: “Carry a .25 if it makes you feel better, but never load it. If you load it, you may shoot somebody, and they may become angry and do you a serious jury.”

We would never contradict the great Lt. Col. But if you would, then you’d better carry the absolute best .25 ACP ammo for protection that you’re able – something exactly like Federal Punch.

This cartridge’s bullet is a 45 grain jacketed solid. Its copper jacket and flat, disc-shaped nose are designed to help it penetrate to the greatest depth as its able. The jacketed solid may anchor itself in soft tissue before it can reach a vital, but it won’t be because it underwent terminal expansion. To that end, its terminal performance is very much like that of a standard FMJ.

But this is no standard FMJ ammo. It is loaded and inspected with greater care for quality, and features precisely drawn and cut brass and fully sealed Boxer primers. Would it change Lt. Col. Cooper’s mind about the .25 ACP? You’d have to ask him. But when push comes to shove, Federal Punch really might just save your life someday.
