@deputyG23 - check with Target Sports for the Remington LSWC-HP. I think I noticed that they had a bunch.

I have also found the XM9001 to shoot real good in multiple guns. Bought a bunch of it. Wish I’d bought more of the Federal 124 (LE9T1) and 135 (LE9T5) bonded stuff which also shoot well for me. If anyone is still shooting .40, the Federal 165 bonded JHP is another great accurate load.

The first indication a bad guy should have that I'm dangerous is when his
disembodied soul is looking down at his own corpse wondering what happened.
Taking a break from social media.
Just ordered a case. My old girl .38s that are regulated for 158 grain ammo will be happy. Thanks for the heads up. Good pricing at $172/500 delivered as well.
There was some bitching on the Smith-Wesson forum some time ago about the newer lots of this ammo being loaded weaker than earlier lots from the 70’s and 80’s. I will chronograph my old stash from the mid ‘80s against the fresh stuff when it comes in just for fun...

I included some of the XM9001 in my recent order to try out. I'm especially interested in it for my SIG P6, an early one which was designed to run specifically with hardball, which is what that bullet is designed to emulate. That bullet has the best reputation of the old school JHPs and at $14/box is tempting. I keep telling myself to sell the P6, but it's too damned nice. Also, Target Sports has a good supply of the LE9T5 load, albeit at $30/box.
@deputyG23 - I risked getting killt in da streetz Sunday and carried my old favorite carry gun, a 4" M10-8 with the Remington load. I went to the range and shot the five yard round-up cold to see how much I had forgotten - some, I only scored a 91 due to the weak-hand part - and followed it up with 150 rounds of my 158-grain RNL handloads which chrono at just over 800 fps. The Remington stuff was considerably feistier. I'll chrono it when I chrono the 9x19 loads I just ordered.
Just got this reply from SG when I asked why the price on HST 50rd boxes jumped 8 bucks a box.
Hi Jason
The factory cut off supply on the HST, Hydrashok and Golddot in 50 round boxesseveral months ago after they threw a big fit about it being sold into thecommercial market. Basically that ammunition is made for law-enforcement salesonly, however we’ve been able to break the rules without getting in trouble forit for quite a while now, but it just caught up to us finally. I’m not going tobe able to get anymore for probably a very long time. I was making $0.75 a boxwhen I sold it by the case and $1.75 when I sold it individually and I don’twant to give away the last of it at those sort of prices if I cannot getanymore. Time will tell how this all plays out but if I am able to get a new sourceor find a way to work around this and buy that ammunition cheap again I willlower the price at that time.
Thank you
Sam

Order showed up Thursday. I have to say I'm happy with my Streichers experience. I ordered the ammo Sunday night and had it by Thursday afternoon at a great price and free shipping. Not sure it gets any better than that.
This gives me 9 full boxes and most of a 10th (split between two mags with a few loose rounds). That should keep me going for a while.

I split a case,I have 13 full boxes and a partial. Guess that will have to hold me for a bit.
I'm tapped out financially, but hopefully someone who needs it, won't resell and hose "us" later could use some at the legacy pricing.
