Boycott Vista Brands Federal HST

[miked30-06]

Dont know if everyone heard but Federal Ammunition will no longer sell 50rd boxes of Federal HST to the general public only to Law enforcement. They only want to sell you the 20rd boxes of HST in a effort to make you buy less ammo at a inflated price, same ammo at a marked up price. No reason except more money for them, do a quick google search for federal 9mm 124 grain +p, all the results for the 50 rd box will say for LE only and if you do find it, it will cost close to $40 a box with shipping, they are forcing distributors to sell 50rd boxes to law enforcement only.

lol good luck boycotting all that especially since it's most of the ammo the big box stores and ranges carry. I don't love the decision they made especially since I use HST and will continue to since I am sitting on a lot of it, but it appears they did it for financial reasons rather then ANTI 2A reasons.

They wrote LE ammo on it and raised the price by $10.00 a box and somehow the fucking sky is falling.

I'm sorry. I can't live without Hoppes 9. Every man has his limit. I've found mine. Like Hall and Oates said: I can't go for that.

I currently own 6000+ rounds of 147gr HST. I'm pretty sure I'm set for life.

That said, I'm not participating in boycotts of other unrelated Vista brands. To do so would put me in the same camp as REI.
