Government Contract Ammo?

Well it is from a reputable seller and the HST bullet is top notch. If I needed and more self defense .40 I wouldn't have a problem with it.
 
ATK; Federal HST .40S&W...

I posted a topic about the new DHS contract for an "indefinite" amount of ATK/Federal HST rounds.
I prefer the Winchester Ranger T or Remington Golden Saber(bonded) pistol rounds but the new Critical Duty & DPX loads are impressive too.

I bought 2 cases of the 180gr 40 S&W last week and it works fine! I thought it was a good buy. The 9mm is out of stock I'm going to jump on it when or if it comes back in stock.
 
I ordered four boxes of it so I'll let you know when it arrives. This may sound like a stupid question but what do they mean by " reloadable with one of Federals most popular defense / law enforcement bullets, the HST"?? Was this ammo reloaded by someone other than Federal?
 
That looks like US Border Patrol's previous duty ammo (Federal 155grn HST). It's pretty snappy. Beats up the gun, too.

The current is Federal 180grn HST.
 
180gr vs the 155-165gr JHP; .40S&W....

I prefer the lighter 155-165gr over the 180gr type .40S&W ammunition.
The 165 grain JHP offer good vel/KE/marksmanship & in most factory rounds, it holds together well.
The light 135gr JHP .40 rounds had higher KE levels but caused a higher amt of recoil.
