Federal Premium HST .40 S&W 180 grain JHP ammunition delivers reliable defensive performance in a compact, duty-ready package. Built for law enforcement and civilian self-defense carry, the HST line represents decades of Federal's commitment to terminal ballistics—combining controlled expansion with consistent penetration to handle real-world defensive scenarios. This 20-round box gives you a practical quantity for training, qualification, or duty rotation.
The HST's hollow-point design is engineered to expand reliably across a range of barriers and obstacles while maintaining the penetration depth needed for effective stopping power. Unlike some defensive rounds that lose integrity when encountering heavy clothing, auto glass, or other common barriers, the HST's construction resists deformation, delivering repeatable performance shot to shot. That consistency matters when your life depends on it.
The 180-grain bullet weight in .40 S&W strikes the balance most .40 carriers prefer—sufficient velocity and energy for duty use without excessive recoil in defensive-configured handguns. Whether you're running qualification drills at the range, carrying professionally, or stocking personal defense ammunition, Federal Premium HST rounds are a proven choice backed by real-world testing and widespread adoption by armed professionals.
