Federal Premium HST .327 Federal 104gr JHP

Federal Premium HST Personal Defense Ammunition

Effective self-defense demands ammunition engineered for consistent performance under real-world conditions. Federal's HST line represents the gold standard—it's the duty ammunition of choice for law enforcement agencies worldwide, and for good reason.

Design and Performance

The HST hollow point features a specially designed cavity that expands reliably even after passing through intermediate barriers. The bullet's jacket and core remain bonded together through the toughest materials, delivering nearly 100 percent weight retention. This engineering ensures the bullet performs as intended, whether it encounters clothing, drywall, or other obstacles.

What Makes HST Different

Barrier-Blind Performance: The hollow point won't plug or fail to expand when passing through common barriers, maintaining its terminal effectiveness in real-world scenarios.

Optimum Penetration: The expanded diameter and weight retention produce the penetration depth needed for personal defense without the risk of over-penetration.

Law Enforcement Proven: HST ammunition meets and exceeds FBI test protocol standards—the same rigorous testing used by law enforcement agencies to evaluate and select duty ammunition.

Reliability and Function

Each round features a nickel-plated case and high-performance primer designed for flawless function in semi-automatic handguns. The bullet's nose profile ensures smooth feeding and reliable chambering, shot after shot.

When your life depends on your ammunition, choose the load trusted by professionals.
