Defensive ammunition is a valuable tool for defenders. To fulfill growing needs within the self-defense community, Federal is expanding its Personal Defense line of ammunition to include 357 Magnum and 327 Federal Magnum HST loads. These new additions will give magnum handgun shooters even more options for their daily carry guns.
Federal Ammunition is pleased to announce an expansion of its HST product family with Personal Defense HST 357 Magnum and 327 Federal Magnum. The ammo maker states these additions continue to build off their existing extensive line of personal defense ammunition. With the inclusion of magnum loads, users have a reliable, effective personal defense option for revolvers: Personal Defense HST.
When it comes to choosing self-defense ammo, reliability is a key factor. To remove any doubts related to performance, HST 357 Magnum and 327 Federal Magnum feature nickel-plated cases for corrosion resistance. Further, the high-performance primer and primer seal ensure consistent ignition.
Federal Ammunition Handgun Product Director, Nick Sachse, said:
When it comes to choosing a caliber for personal defense, the 357 Magnum and 327 Federal Magnum continue to be popular choices. A big reason for the continued popularity of these calibers is the preference to carry a revolver for everyday carry. We are excited to add these new loads to the already proven line of HST Personal Defense handgun ammunition.
Users that want to carry a magnum caliber for personal defense, want to utilize the full benefit of them. The specially engineered 104-grain 327 Federal Magnum and 154-grain 357 Magnum HST Jacketed Hollow Points were designed to take full advantage of magnum cartridges with consistent terminal performance. From a terminal performance standpoint, these magnum cartridges provide energy that allows for both excellent penetration and expansion. And like all HST bullets, this performance can be relied on through heavy clothing.
The 327 Federal Magnum loads use 104-grain bullets while the 357 Magnum loads use 154-grain bullets. This line of ammunition is specifically designed for defensive use.
MSRP for the Federal Premium Personal Defense HST line of ammunition varies by quantity and caliber.
