Federal Premium HST 40 S&W 180 grain jacketed hollow point ammunition delivers the terminal performance trusted by law enforcement agencies worldwide. The HST design combines controlled expansion with deep penetration, engineered to function reliably through intermediate barriers while maintaining structural integrity and near-complete weight retention.
The 180-grain projectile in 40 S&W caliber represents a balanced approach to duty and defensive shooting, offering manageable recoil while maintaining stopping effectiveness. The hollow point cavity is specifically engineered to resist plugging when passing through heavy clothing, barriers, or automotive glass—a critical design feature that distinguishes HST from conventional hollow point offerings. The consistent bullet jacket-to-core bond ensures structural reliability across the velocity spectrum, a hallmark of Federal's manufacturing consistency.
This ammunition is purpose-built for defensive applications where terminal performance under real-world conditions matters. Law enforcement officers, armed security professionals, and serious civilian defensive shooters rely on HST for its predictable expansion characteristics and barrier-blind performance. The 20-round box format (available in 200-round cases) suits both training protocols and duty rotation requirements common to tactical environments.
