Federal HST
Has anyone been able to find these in 9MM? Heard somewhere that they were LEO only....any truth to that? "Two flags fly above my land that really sum up how I feel. One is the colors that fly high and proud the red the white the blue.The other ones got a rattlesnake with a simple statement made, Don’t Tread On Me is what it says" |

I have 400 rounds of it in .40S&W, but no 9mm. It is only sold to LEA distributers by federal (as far as I know)... but those same distributers and agenices turn around and sell their surplus ammo. It is perfectly legal for anyone to own. I bought all of mine from ammunitiontogo.com . They are running low on everything right now.
These guys look like they're back ordered too, but expecting more. http://www.tds-us.com/catalog.php/tds/dt49209/Federal_Tactical_HST_LEO
same here...

I love the talons
raffycanlas
they are hella expensive tho, lol
Reaper308
not really. Its pretty cheap for defense ammo. I bought a 1/2 case.... but they usually come in boxes of 50 rounds for around $20-$30+/-. Compare that to DPX (which is also great) which is around $30 for 20 rds.

if you can't find 9mm HST, look into winchester ranger SXT. It is also LE ammo and available to the public. It talons very similar to the HST. I think it comes in 124 gr +P, 127 gr. +p+, and 147 gr.

also check out Corbon's DPX. It uses the Barnes X bullet which talons just like SXT and HST but its specifically made for deeper penetration and shooting through thougher barriers. SXT, HST, and DPX are my favorite JHPs because I prefer the talons over mushrooms and I personally think they are much more devastating to tissue.

www.gunbroker.com has lots of LE ammo offered (auction site).
The HST doesn't perform dramatically better than the standard commercial offerings like CorBon DPX, Speer Gold Dot, Rem Golden Saber, etc.
I issue .40SW Federal Bonded Tactical to my guys.
In 9mm, you have 4 flavors of Gold Dot and 3 flavors of Golden Saber and 1 of DPX...oughta be something that meets your criteria.
If you're a 'more power' kinda guy, try Double Tap Ammunition. When I carried a 10mm on duty he loaded up a ton of matched practice and duty ammo for me....definitely the place to get the 'hot stuff' if fps/me trips your trigger.
Shakleford
I was just wanting to try it out.....I usually carry Hornady Critical Defense,Speer Gold Dot, or CorBon DPX. Most of my LE buddies swear by the Speer,so thats what I've been keep in the Glock lately.
