The Federal Premium HST (MPN: P9HST1) is widely regarded as one of the most effective personal defense loads on the market. Unlike traditional jacketed hollow points that can over-expand or fragment, the HST is specifically engineered to deliver a consistent, massive expansion while maintaining nearly 100% weight retention. It is the ammunition of choice for law enforcement agencies across the country due to its legendary reliability and "barrier-blind" performance.

The HST Advantage: Terminal Performance Redefined

The HST's unique pre-skived bullet nose is designed to provide uniform expansion regardless of the barrel length or impact velocity. Its specially designed hollow point cavity is resistant to plugging when passing through heavy clothing—a common failure point for other defensive rounds—ensuring that the bullet blossoms into a devastating "flower" of petals upon impact.

Typical FBI Protocol Performance Data

The 124gr 9mm HST is optimized to fall perfectly within the FBI’s preferred penetration window of 12 to 18 inches, ensuring maximum energy transfer without the risk of excessive over-penetration.

Key Features & Technology

• Proprietary Skiving: The nose is precision-cut to ensure the jacket peels back into consistent, sharp petals that create a massive permanent wound cavity.

• Internal Core-to-Jacket Locking: The HST design mechanically locks the lead core to the jacket, preventing separation even when striking hard barriers like bone or glass.

• Nickel-Plated Brass: Provides high-visibility for chamber checks, exceptional corrosion resistance, and ultra-smooth feeding in micro, compact, and full-size pistols.

• Low-Flash Powders: Formulated to minimize muzzle flash, preserving your night vision during critical low-light defensive encounters.
