We worked with engineers from Springfield Armory to create Custom Shop loads specifically designed for the utmost performance from the new Model 2020 Waypoint rifle.
For more than 100 years, Federal has been making the world’s best ammunition. But we’re more than just a manufacturer. We live and breathe this lifestyle, and our ammunition is shot by the top long-range shooters, competitors and hunters. We’ve built the Federal Blog with the knowledge we’ve accumulated through that combined experience. And so, no matter what pursuit drives you, you’ll find tips, tactics, and other information you can use to shoot better right here.
When Federal ambassador and competitive shooter Josh Froelich trains with a carbine, he opts for a suppressed 300 Blackout loaded with subsonic American Eagle loads. The whisper-quiet setup allows safe shooting at steel targets in tight quarters without damaging the targets.
They’re both high-performance turkey loads that use some of Federal’s latest technologies to take down toms. But that’s where the similarities between Federal Premium HEAVYWEIGHT TSS and 3rd Degree end. We explain and reveal which one is right for how you hunt.
Should you opt for the proven power of copper-plated lead or go to a three-stage payload that adds FLITESTOPPER pellets and TSS? We explain the similarities and differences of Federal Premium 3rd Degree and Grand slam turkey loads so you can make the right choice.

The ammo craftsmen in the Federal Custom Shop have collaborated with Rob Roberts on a lineup of new TSS turkey loads that are pure poison on gobblers.

Hit the right penetration depths through real-world barriers like heavy clothing with Hydra-Shok Deep 9mm Luger. The OA Defense 2311 makes a great match for the ammo—Federal ambassador Krystal Dunn explains why.
You’ll train like you mean it when you shoot Federal’s Practice & Defend Packs, which pair 50 rounds of HST with 50 rounds of Syntech Training Match. Federal ambassador Krystal Dunn explains why the Walther PDP is so well suited to the load—especially when paired with a Banish suppressor from Silencer Central.
With the power of 9mm and more magazine capacity, 30 Super Carry HST makes the ideal carry round. Federal ambassador Krystal Dunn reveals why the Smith & Wesson Shield Plus gets the most from the cartridge.
What’s the difference between buckshot and birdshot? Let’s compare these two common shotshell ammo categories.
The law enforcement-proven 9mm Federal Premium HST sets the bar for self-defense. Federal ambassador Krystal Dunn shows why the Glock 48 pairs perfectly with the ammo to provide the performance needed for protection.
Short-barrel pistols are perfect for carry, but the limited energy of common compact cartridges like 32 Auto and 380 Auto demands the right ammo. Federal maximizes the effectiveness of these calibers by loading them with Hydra-Shok Deep bullets built to prioritize penetration over expansion.
