Self Defense
If you want 9mm +P ammo for self-defense, then it is quite possible you will not find a better product than Federal Premium Personal Defense HST. Bold statement, we know, but the fact that you will find this ammo in a lot of cops’ magazines speaks volumes for its quality and performance.
This cartridge is loaded with a 124 grain HST series jacketed hollow point bullet. Federal designed the HST to excel at the FBI protocol for terminal ballistics. As such it exhibits excellent weight retention: 100% when fired into bare ballistic gelatin, or 92% when fired into ballistic gel that is shielded by heavy clothing. The HST achieves approximately 2.5X expansion and penetrates to a depth of 10” when it strikes bare gel; 1.7X expansion and 13” when it strikes gel covered by heavy clothing.
The HST’s nose cavity is specially engineered to avoid becoming clogged with debris, which keeps its ability to initiate terminal expansion fully intact. The HST’s nose profile is also designed to feed as smoothly as possible – perfect for scenarios where a failure to fire could cost you everything. This ammo’s nickel-plated brass cases are yet another feature that promote seamless operation in a semi-automatic.
This is the same exact 9mm +P ammunition which Federal Premium markets to law enforcement officers. Only its packaging is different. Please take note that this is overpressure ammunition: it will damage firearms that aren’t rated for +P, and may also injure the shooter in doing so.
