Which of the Federal HST loads are bonded and which are not? This is for 9mm. I thought the 124gr. and 147gr. loads were not bonded, while the 135gr. load is. Now I'm seeing a 150gr. load on their website too.
Is "Tactical" written on every box of HST, or does it denote bonded/not bonded? Something else?
In addition, for those that have seen testing of both, how much more effective is bonded HST at penetrating barriers? I'm looking for a round that penetrates barriers poorly (yes I know about shot placement, safe angles, etc. I just figure given the choice I'd rather have a round that is less likely to go through wood, brick, glass, etc.).
