Federal Ammo For Sale
Overview of Federal Ammo
Federal Ammunition began in 1916 in Anoka, Minnesota, originally manufacturing ammo and bicycles. Under Charles L. Horn's leadership from 1922, Federal grew into a renowned ammunition brand. Horn's innovative marketing and commitment to quality helped secure contracts during WWII, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War, solidifying Federal's role in military supply.
One of the company’s most trusted modern defensive offerings is Federal HST 9mm ammo, built for consistent expansion and reliability.
Federal's Product Innovation
Federal offers a comprehensive catalog of centerfire, rimfire, and shotshell ammo, with its American Eagle line covering everyday range staples like 38 Super ammo. The company pioneered conservation efforts, including supporting 4-H programs and advocating for the Pittman-Robertson Act, which continues to fund wildlife restoration through ammunition excise taxes.
Federal's Varmint & Predator line reflects the company's commitment to wildlife management, offering hunters high-performance .22-250 ammo loaded with V-MAX and Nosler Ballistic Tip projectiles for long-range accuracy on coyotes and other predators.
Federal also co-developed the 7mm Backcountry with Christensen Arms, and its 7mm Backcountry ammunition uses a Peak Alloy steel case to reach magnum velocity from a short, lightweight hunting rifle.
Modern Manufacturing
Federal's Anoka facility has expanded from its modest beginnings to over 500,000 square feet, producing a wide range of ammo for hunting, self-defense, and law enforcement. Innovations like Hydra-Shok self-defense rounds and American Eagle Syntech polymer-coated bullets highlight Federal's commitment to quality and performance. Federal's dedication to defensive ammunition extends to rimfire cartridges—read our Federal Punch 22 WMR review to see how their backup gun ammunition performs in real-world testing.
Awards and Recognition
Federal has received numerous accolades, including Game & Fish Readers’ Choice Awards and the NRA’s Golden Bullseye. The company remains a trusted name for shooters across the globe.

The only issue was that one shell would not fit into the cylinder of my S&W Governor.

Not only is the price fantastic, but my shipment arrived in pristine condition. I was a new customer, and didn't know what to expect. I had a very bad experience buying ammunition on line from another place that claims to be 'cheaper than...ahem.. anything'. My experience with Ammo.com could not have been better. The trusted brand and quality of my order goes without saying. But the handling, packaging, and service from the people at Ammo.com was phenomenal, even surprising given the world we live in where poor service is pretty much expected. I will not shop anywhere else. Ammo.com is my go to supplier.

Looking for some .40 cal you can feed your pistol with total confidence? Fill your magazines with the HST JHP from Federal! My Sig and I spent an afternoon punching holes with these, along with three other brands. We know there are some brands okay for range practice, because a misfeed or misfire doesn't matter much. But it was clear from the outset that if you carry, these are the guys you want to take with you. Never a misfeed or misfire, and accurate to a gnat's eyelash. I figure if it's my life and perhaps the lives of my loved ones on the line, I'll have enough to worry about without fighting the bad guys and my ammo problems at the same time.

The .270 is a flat shooting Caliber, and big enough to take down many species. I prefer to use 150 grain, and sight in my rifle to 300 yards

I bought 2 of these boxes and haven’t had any problems. Goes bang every time. No misfires, no jams. I will continue using 55 grain for shooting ranges, as well as home defense situations.

This is great ammo for Self Defense, this will get the job done. Using solid guns like Kimber in 45 & 10mm, I was able to achieve a level of accuracy at 25 yards with this ammo that I haven't been able to do since my Army days. Firing many 3 round groups at 25 yards, All shots could fit inside the circumference of a Quarter, actually the shots on the target touched and overlapped each other, nice mushrooms, 0 malfunctions and seeing some expand to over an inch, I decided to change over and make this my first "go to" ammo. Thank you Ammo.com
