Title: Federal 9MM Ammo. Great Price.
Post by: Shooter1911 on September 05, 2016, 06:25:07 PM
This is likely the wrong board but want to say I just ordered a thousand rounds of Federal Law Enforcement HST 147 Grain 9MM. $399.00 a thousand rounds. At Target Sports USA. Labor Day sale.

He shoots, he scores!

Great price indeed for a great SD round.  Here's praying you only need to use it on targets!

147gr HST is my go to SD round.  Just today compared it with 124gr NATO in the pocket size Beretta Nano.  Let me say the difference in recoil was significant; NATO being felt much more.  The difference is hardly noticeable in a full size steel gun except for group size on paper,, with 9mm NATO being my go to target round.

BTW 6 o7 HSTs from the NANO hit the gong at 36 ft.  I missed with all 5 NATO rounds shot, which shocked me to be honest, since it has driven tacks from the CZs!

Budsgunshop.com in Lexington, KY has Yavex 9MM from Turkey for 329.00 for 1450 rounds of 124 grain. It is supposed to be NATO compliant. I checked the Buds site and their gun guy liked it. Split a case with friends. We all like it. Shoots like Winchester NATO. Good looking clean brass cases.

That's a very good price.

Gee, I thought I did well getting Hornady 124 gr XTPs for 56 cents a piece (total cost; no tax & free delivery!).  I'll have to look a bit harder next time.  Thanks for the tip!
