I have been carrying HST in 9mm for awhile. Just switched to HST in .45 as well. Very impressive round.

Re: Federal HST 230gn 45acp ballistics test
I read good things about this round a while back, but I didn't have the best of luck with it feeding in my PT1911. Maybe I'll try it again and see what happens -- that is pretty damn impressive.

Re: Federal HST 230gn 45acp ballistics test
Been carrying these .45 acp rounds for a few years now - besides the great performance - the secondary crimp along the case is a nice touch to prevent round setback. They also come in both standard and +p flavors. I have found the +p "iffy" as far as feeding in some guns but have had great results with the non +p round.

About the only way I can sum that up is "Damn!"
