Most Helpful Positive Review All Around Great Product!
I like to use these bullets at the shooting range. They're a great price for the 50 round box. I buy this ammo on a regular basis! These bullets are always in stock during this timecof the pandemic. Also, they're at my house in less than acweek with coupons in the box.

awesome prices

by Shaun Eiler, Verified Owner from IN, United States Written on January 21, 2025
Absolute best price on the best defense ammo. A 20 pack is $32 where I live so to get a 50 pack for almost the same price is unbeatable!

Federal 147gr HST

by Scott, Verified Owner from LA, United States Written on October 29, 2024
I haven't shot very many but from the research that I've done this is some of the most reliable ammunition there is. Good penetration from bare gel to heavy clothing with excellent weight retention.

Federal HST

by Scott, Verified Owner from LA, United States Written on June 25, 2024
From every test that I've watched the Federal HST excells as defensive rounds. From bare gel to heavy clothing to denim it has very reliable expansion and nearly 100% weight retention. Without having to actual have used any i believe them to be one of the best choices on the market. Also, way better priced, at Optics Planet, than some of the other rounds of equal reliablity, expansion, and optimal penetration.

Great Service & Great Ammo

by Bryan R, Verified Owner from TX, United States Written on April 27, 2024
I caught it on sale but was backordered. The website kept me advised, and they shipped when they got them. The HST rounds are some of the best defense rounds, and the 147 grain is great for subcompacts.

147 HSTs are the Go-To

by RJ, from CO, United States Written on April 19, 2024
The ballistics gel tests on YouTube speak for themselves - the expansion on these is best in class and they are very reliable for daily carry and long term storage (sealant is included on the neck and primer). I landed on the 147 grain because I love the recoil impulse but they are also less likely to over penetrate across all the tests and documentation I’ve seen. Only self defense rounds I’ve ever used and I would trust my life to these without a doubt.
Pros:
  • reliability
  • materials
  • expansion
  • recoil impulse
Cons:
  • Expensive
Would recommend: Yes
