Federal P9HST2S 9mm Luger 147gr HST JHP Personal Defense Ammo

The Federal P9HST2S Premium Personal Defense ammunition delivers proven stopping power with its 147-grain HST jacketed hollow point design. This professional-grade 9mm Luger load provides consistent expansion and penetration characteristics that law enforcement agencies rely on daily.

What Makes This Different

Federal's HST (Hi-Shok Two) technology features a mechanical jacket-to-core bond that prevents separation during expansion. The hollow point cavity design achieves optimal expansion across barrier materials while maintaining weight retention above 90%. This 147-grain subsonic loading reduces muzzle flash and felt recoil compared to lighter, faster rounds while delivering superior terminal ballistics.

Key Features

• 147-grain HST jacketed hollow point bullet with proven expansion characteristics
• Subsonic velocity reduces muzzle flash and maintains accuracy in short-barrel pistols
• Nickel-plated brass cases resist corrosion and ensure reliable feeding
• Mechanical jacket-to-core bond prevents bullet separation on impact
• Low-flash powder formulation ideal for low-light defensive scenarios
• 20 rounds per box, 10 boxes per case (200 total rounds)
• Compatible with all 9mm Luger/.357 SIG/.40 S&W platforms

This ammunition performs consistently across temperature extremes and barrier materials. The 147-grain bullet weight provides deep penetration through heavy clothing and intermediate barriers while expanding reliably in soft tissue. Federal's quality control ensures lot-to-lot consistency for predictable point of impact, whether used in compact carry pistols or full-size duty weapons.
