I've been buying federal hst online for $18.99 per 50 over last 2 years.

My go to place doesnt have any and when I see it its going for $30 but most places are out of stock.

Other places have the 20 round boxes but prices are absurd.

What's the deal , did federal stop making it ?

There is a big ass thread on it.
Basically dirty civilians are not allowed 50rd boxes only the overpriced 20’s.
So either brake out your credentials or find new ammo.

GTFO. Are you serious? Any reason why?

Something else. My online vendor doesnt have 9mm gold dot either in 50 round boxes.

I just got 1,000 rounds of 124g 9mm +P HST delivered last week
probably going to last me decades as I reload my own and have much cheaper ammo to burn up LOLOLOLOL
I might offer it on the EE
But - my rating is too low LOLOLOL

Mostly faggotry on the part of Vista (who owns Federal, CCI, Bushnell and many, MANY other brands) who want to pimp their magic bullets to commoners for $1+/round. By the way, they also support common sense gun control.

Add that to the panic created by ARFCOM and 50 round boxes disappeared from Dealer's inventory except for the savvy ones who bumped their pricing up to match demand.

Spend as much time and money training and practicing as you do buying magic bullets and you might actually be prepared to defend yourself against something other than blocks of Jello.

You missed the long ass thread about Vista outdoors being a bunch of cunts and not letting dealers sell 50 round boxes to the peons?

It's a $ grab 2x.  The 1st is to cause a run on 50 round boxes in stock, and the 2nd is to force you to buy the 20rd boxes for way too much $/rd.

A good lot of us are boycotting everything Vista sells because of this shit.

I'm in the market for a bolt gun and I'm super bummed Savage is a Vista held company.........for example.

You've been bitching about your EE score in a few threads now.......about how you want to sell stuff but your score is too low.

You have 2 feedback, 1/2 of them are negative.  You didn't sell much before.....this is what, the 3rd thread you "would sell but....".

+ 1 Words to live buy!

Over the years with the different ammo shortages, price increases and what not, I've learned that when the stuff you use is available at the right price, buy it cheap and stack it deep!

Got $500 burning a hole in your pocket and you're thinking of buying a new gun? Don't! Invest it in ammo and or reloading equipment or components!

Big deal. So you can't buy their Magic Bullets without bending it over and taking it in the rear.

So don't buy their ammo.

Sheesh.

critical duty or defense and ranger are my new go too. The departments I work with dont even use the HST anymore

for some reason  federal ammo think LEO and non LEO are not the same....the police state mentality i guess. LEO and non LEO are civilian yet they like to put both in different category

Perhaps Federal figured out how to get some free advertising?
1. Announce HST as too lethal to be sold to mere civilians.  
2. Jack up the price.  
3. Profit because neckbeards buy all the HST inventory.  
4. Release sales to civilians again.

99% sure that info is out there because I have seen it. If you can't find it a chronograph will help you get there without the info if you know what your doing.  Also HST really doesn't need to be pushed at +P velocities.
