Federal Ammo

Federal Premium Ammunition is one of the largest and most comprehensive ammunition manufacturers on the planet. The company has a bunch of brands you've probably heard of, including American Eagle Ammo, Fusion, and Guard Dog, but their flagship brand is Federal Premium, one of the top choice for multiple shooting activities. Thanks to quality and consistency, this innovative company has a strong reputation among hunters, target shooters, and self-defense gun owners.

While they make ammunition and reloading supplies for pretty much any shooting activity and produce for the U.S. Government/Military at their Lake City facilities, Federal markets themselves heavily in the world of hunting as well as the world of self-defense ammunition. Odds are good you've heard of Hydra-Shok and HST's if you've spent anytime in a concealed carry class. These hollow-points are know around the world for consistent penetration and expansion - two characteristics law enforcement and self-defense experts crave.

On the other side - their lineup of hunting ammunition includes options for game of all shapes and sizes, including varmints, big game, waterfowl, and even dangerous game.

Federal is based out of Anoka, Minnesota, where they employ nearly 1,400 workers at a facility that holds half a million square feet of workspace.

The company was founded in 1922 by Charles L. Horn, who put a particular emphasis on quality and service. It was originally called the Federal Cartridge Company and produced many different products, including shotgun shells. In 1951, the company introduced centerfire primers to their lineup.

By 1960, Federal was color-coding their shotgun ammunition. They were the first ammo manufacturer to color-code their products, a practice that is now widely used throughout the industry. Another innovation came in 1973, when Federal became the first ammunition company to manufacture shells with steel shot.

In 1977, “Premium” centerfire rifle cartridges were introduces by the company, launching the Premium brand for Federal. In 2002, they would officially change the name of the entire company to Federal Premium Ammunition, displaying their commitment to top-quality cartridges and reloading supplies.

One of Federal’s proudest moments was when their “Gold Medal” load helped Team USA win three Olympic medals at the 1996 games in Atlanta.

Federal has always been a company involved in outdoor habitat and conservation. As an example of the company’s consistent commitment to the outdoors, Federal has been a long-time partner with the National Wild Turkey Federation, as well as Pheasants Forever.

In 1937, they even participated in a self-imposed excise tax on ammunition and firearms, an effort that raised billions of dollars for wildlife habitat. By 2014, the company had sold 40 million Pheasants Forever special-edition shotshell, an effort that supported organization directly.

Recent Federal Ammo Reviews

  • ☆☆☆☆☆
    Fast delivery. Powerful rounds that had noticeably more kick than, say, the Hornady Critical Defense ammo. Good times at the range with this stuff. Considering it part of my go to ammo for my self defense stock pile.
    Paris Vega on 50rds - 9mm Federal LE Tactical HST 124gr. HP Ammo
  • ☆☆☆☆☆
    Federal Hydrashocks are some of the best rounds out there. The quality of these rounds cannot be matched by others. This is displayed by how hard they are to find. Thank you ammunitiontogo for helping find ammo that is scarce these days.
    Carlos Reyes on 20rds - 38 Special Federal Hydra-Shok 129gr. +P HP Ammo
  • ☆☆☆☆☆
    I’ve put this HST 9mm through all of my pistols sigs, Glock, S&W shield , HI POWER Powerful load and accuracy is great.
    Dale on Federal Premium Law Enforcement 9mm 124 Grain HST JHP - 1000 Rounds
  • ☆☆☆☆☆
    Federal has sold this load for many years (though not always in the same packaging). I've been using it for fox, bobcats, coyotes and as a general plinking round for about as long. While it's not the most accurate round out there, it does MOA in my CZ 527 and Rock River Coyote Rifle and so is plenty accurate for hunting. It's terminal ballistics are superb. Every varmint I've shot with it went down in its tracks. Though I cannot recommend it as a deer round, with neck shots it will drop the biggest buck with authority. Overall good to very good hunting load.
