200 Rounds of 150gr HST JHP 9mm Ammo by Federal

Do you prefer to carry a subcompact handgun for personal protection? If so, we don’t blame you -- sometimes it’s hard to coordinate your outfit so it will effectively conceal your M2 Browning machine gun. Federal understands too, which is why they offer their Personal Defense Micro HST line of ammunition. This 9mm round features a heavy bullet that exits the muzzle at a velocity of only 900 fps, making its recoil far more manageable out of a smaller firearm.

That accommodation doesn’t impact the bullet’s lethality, however, because this cartridge is equipped with Federal’s HST. The HST expands into a star pattern as it rushes through its target, causing immense trauma without impeding its ability to penetrate deeply. The HST is a hearty bullet as well, as its cannelure does much to prevent its core separating from its jacket as it penetrates tougher barriers. This round’s HST is further designed with a profile that promotes smooth feeding in a semi-automatic handgun.

This round is well-suited for nighttime use. Its corrosion resistant nickel plated casing is naturally easier to spot during a chamber check in the dark, and its propellant limits muzzle flash to preserve the shooter’s night vision.
