wasn't sure if I should post this here or in the ammo/reloading section. hopefully here is ok seeing as how it should be in my carry gun.
I found this today when I was searching for some good carry ammo to replace some of the old style HP I am using now. the pictures are impressive enough to give the federal hst some serious thought in my opinion. anyone have any thoughts or experience with it?

Good job. Very good info.
I have never used them, but I do know Federal makes high quality ammo.

Very interesting, thanks for the post.
Thanks for posting. The only one I have carried is the Star Fire.

I just ordered some Federal HST for my .45's after reading this Wound Ballistics Workshop from July of last year. I've got to give it a try!

I read about the Federal HST round in one of my magazines last week. Very impressive. It's like a mini buzz saw going through flesh and bone. Time to make some inquires and see who has it in our area.

Thanks for the link. $26.00 a box of 50 isn't too bad of a price.

from what I hear streichers.com is kind of hit and miss with hst ammo.. I tried ordering yesterday from them but they were out. so I found and ordered some from here.
