The Federal P45HST2S Premium Personal Defense ammunition delivers consistent expansion and penetration through the proven HST (Hydra-Shok Two) jacketed hollow point design. This 45 ACP load combines a 230-grain projectile with optimized powder charges to achieve reliable terminal performance across various barrier materials.
What Makes This Different
The HST bullet features a mechanical jacket-to-core bond that prevents separation during expansion, maintaining weight retention above 95% in ballistic gelatin tests. Unlike traditional hollow points that can clog with clothing fibers, the HST's engineered cavity design promotes consistent expansion through heavy clothing and intermediate barriers. Federal's nickel-plated brass cases resist corrosion and provide smooth feeding in semi-automatic pistols.Key Features
