Federal American Eagle 40 S&W 180 Grain Full Metal Jacket Value Pack Ammunition (MPN: AE40R100)
Product Description
High-volume combat handgun training, defensive proficiency testing, and competitive action shooting disciplines require intense quantities of ammo, turning individual 50-round box counts into an expensive and inefficient logistical layout. Shooters tracking performance trends through a .40 Smith & Wesson platform need a reliable training partner that generates realistic operational recoil mechanics without the astronomical price point of duty ammunition. Federal answers this range requirement with their American Eagle 100-round Value Pack, delivering exceptional component quality and clean-cycling performance designed to maximize your time on the firing line.
Proudly loaded in Anoka, Minnesota, this centerfire training cartridge features an industry-standard 180-grain Full Metal Jacket (FMJ) flat-nose projectile. The bullet profile is engineered with absolute geometrical consistency, ensuring smooth, jam-free indexing up steep semi-automatic feed ramps and identical ballistic trajectories to high-end defensive loads. Federal builds every American Eagle round with clean-burning propellants and ultra-responsive Boxer primers seated within first-run, uniform brass shell cases. The high structural integrity of the copper-alloy jacket and pristine brass casings prevents chamber fouling, ensuring clean, continuous mechanical extraction and supplying premium raw materials for the custom reloading bench once spent.
Out on the range, this heavy-for-caliber load delivers the hard-hitting slide velocity and classic rolling recoil impulse that established the .40 S&W cartridge as a law enforcement icon. Leaving the muzzle at a stable 1,000 FPS with 400 ft-lbs of muzzle energy, the round cuts clean holes through cardboard targets and hits steel silhouettes with impressive authority. The uniform powder charges ensure highly predictable drop and low velocity variance across extended courses of fire. Packaged in a robust 100-round layout to minimize retail box clutter in your range bag, it stands out as an indispensable cornerstone for tactical training drills, weapon system validation, or multi-day training loops.
*Armorer Bench Notes & Technical Maintenance Guidance: Handgun ammunition procurement regulations strictly apply. All purchasers must be 21 years of age or older and assume full legal responsibility for adhering to local, state, and federal laws. Due to commercial carrier transit restrictions, ammunition cannot be delivered to Alaska, Hawaii, or US territories. Deliveries destined for California and New York must ship directly to an authorized FFL dealer or registered ammunition vendor. Residents of Illinois must supply a valid FOID card alongside a matching state ID prior to order processing, and localized regional bans prohibit delivery to specific jurisdictions inside Illinois (including Chicago), Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Washington D.C. Armorer Tip: The 180-grain flat-nose FMJ matches the weight of classic duty rounds; to keep your firearm tracking with continuous reliability during high-round training strings, ensure your slide rails are properly lubricated and carbon is cleared from beneath the extractor hook.
