- 50 Rounds of .45 ACP +P HST Ammo by Federal LE - 230gr JHP
Details
Are you in search of a dependable .45 ACP hollow point? Federal HST is as good as they come. This cartridge has been through extensive testings and has been reviewed time and time again. Your BulkAmmo brethren agree that Federal HST 230 grain +P ammo is brilliant stuff. One of Federal's premium lines of ammo, HST Tactical is a Law Enforcement round that is carried by many LE agencies all over. The nickel-plated brass cases are of excellent quality, and Federal only uses the best powders and primers for these loads.
Federal has been building ammo in Anoka, MN for the better part of the last century, and HST is perhaps their most impressive technology. While .45 ACP is known to have impressive stopping power inherently due to its size and velocity, Federal developed this unique jacketed hollow point round to consistently expand to well over half an inch in diameter, usually to about 2x the diamater of an unfired .45 bullet. This expansion significantly reduces the likelihood of overpenetration. The +P pressure offers a slightly deeper penetration than the standard pressure, while maintaining the expansion to make sure that significant damage is caused to the target, and the target only.

Can't ask for a better round for personal defense. It is dependable accurate and makes a nice large wound cavity. There is a reason it is the choice of many law enforcement agencies. Only other one that is just as good is Speers Gold Dot round. Plus can't beat the price at just under a buck a round (Posted on 4/30/2024)

This is a solid heavy hitting defense round. Fed flawlessly through both of my Springfield 1911s. Recoil was a bit more than my normal target loads but still very manageable. This is going to be my primary EDC ammo choice from now on. Thank you bulkammo.com for the fast and well packed shipment. (Posted on 2/19/2016)

Expansion up to an inch with excellent weight retention. Stopping power that is almost unbeatable for soft targets. Love the +P version. Always the first round in my FNX 45 Tactical's throat (Posted on 2/24/2014)

Will this ammo work in a long colt 45. Item number above
Posted On: 3/21/2020 By: Terry Ainsworth
A: Thank you for reaching out, Terry! This 45 ACP ammunition will not work in that revolver or any other firearm chambered for 45 Long Colt. At this very moment we only have this 45 Long Colt ammunition in stock: luckygunner.com/45-long-colt-250-grain-lrn-remington-performance-wheel-gun-500-rounds. We intend to stock a greater variety of 45 Long Colt ammo shortly, and are only in low supply owing to the recent health crisis.
