Head explained why the remarkable improvements in expansion, penetration and integrity through defensive barriers are especially important to self-defense. Hydra-Shok Deep does all of this with a 70-percent improvement in FBI protocol score.”Īlthough the bullet’s performance in ballistic gelatin is impressive, many shooters might wonder how Hydra-Shok Deep will boost their real-world performance. “We also wanted to develop a round that would score significantly better through the FBI protocol testing than standard Hydra-Shok. “The primary goal of Hydra-Shok Deep was to penetrate to the FBI’s optimum depth of 14 to 16 inches and at the same time provide more consistent performance though the intermediate barriers,” Head said. The Hydra-Shok Deep is marketed as a personal defense cartridge, designed to penetrate 15 inches in bare. Testing shows that Hydra-Shok Deep penetrates 15 inches in bare ballistics gelatin, which is the optimal depth, according to FBI standards. We tested the new Federal Premium Hydra-Shok Deep cartridges in 9mm and. The new Hydra-Shok Deep bullet features a core design that provides up to 50 percent deeper penetration than original Hydra-Shok and similar loads from competitors, and the center post has been improved so it’s more robust, which provides better integrity and performance through barriers. That provided better penetration and more consistent threat-stopping expansion than other bullets at the time. Proven since its introduction in 1989, Hydra-Shok® remains one of the most popular choices among self-defense experts. At that time, the FBI had requested a projectile with better terminal ballistics than traditional cup-and-core bullets, and Federal responded with Hydra-Shok, which uses an expanding bullet with a notched jacket, non-bonded lead core and unique center-post hollow-point design. Hydra-Shok has been a self-defense staple since its debut in 1989. Larry Head, director and chief engineer of handgun ammunition: “Hydra-Shok Deep offers consumers a round that results in consistent, reliable performance through typical defensive barriers and penetrates to the depth deemed optimum by the leading law-enforcement agency in the United States.” Hydra-Shok Deep’s redesigned bullet features a more robust center post and a core design that provides as much as 50 percent deeper penetration than classic Hydra-Shok.
