A long time major player in ultra-quality and specialized American made ammunition may be a company you have never heard of? So who are these guys anyway?
Stevensville, MT –-(Ammoland.com)- Hunting Shack Munitions, Inc. (HSM) is not a little outfit with a batch of hand operated presses.
HSM Ammunition is a major player with 45 highly-experienced employees turning out 500,000+ rounds of high-power rifle and pistol ammunition a day!
In business since 1968 HSM started primarily by supporting law enforcement with range and duty ammunition. The company then quickly moved into the manufacture of restricted special purpose ammunition for certain law enforcement and federal organizations.
Over the last 20-years while continuing to service special units with unique ammunition HSM has moved more into the commercial market with a truly huge variety of ammunition; would you believe some 950 loads over 120 calibers?
HSM markets exclusively through 2,100 retailers which include Cabelas, Sportsman’s Warehouse and major catalog outlets as Midway USA and Sportsman’s Guide.
One unique commercial line of hunting ammunition HSM produces is their Trophy Gold brand.Trophy Gold is exclusively loaded with famed Berger Bullets. For many years Berger Bullets has been producing incredibly accurate bullets primarily used by high-level competitors.
HSM in collaboration with Berger Bullets developed their Trophy Gold line of ballistic efficient very low drag (VLD) match grade accurate ammunition for extended range hunting. The Trophy Gold VLD rounds are specifically designed to deliver 100 percent of their energy inside the animal for quick kills at long range reduced velocities and yet to do so without destroying meat at closer ranges either; a neat trick!
HSM Ammunition, a company you will hear much more of in the future.

Do you sell direct or where can I buy 168 free. Burger for 308 cal.
To me this company is hit and miss I purchased 300 rum in 168 grain vld and half the Box the bullets weren’t seated powder everywhere the bullet shot all over the place so I tried the 185 grains and they were just as bad so I don’t know Quality Control sucks I think. I went with Barnes 168 TSX from hendershots. Awesome awesome awesome that’s all I can say about them
My 10 yr old daughter took her 1st and 2nd deer this year with the HSM 7mm08…. it performed flawlessly and was very impressive
I recently bought a box of HSM 454 Casull Bear loads. #HSM-454C-4N. I took them to the range to try them out. Lots of blast and recoil, as expected, but at 20 yards they KEYHOLED and were all over a 2 foot square box. I’m shooting a Ruger Alaskan super Redhawk with a 3 inch barrel. I expected big groups but not keyholing. Winchester and Remington ammo work just fine. No keyhole at 50 yards !! What’s up ?? And more important, what am I supposed to do with the 39 shells I have left of that expensive box of… Read more »

ON THE LAST ANTELOPE SHE PRAYED, LORD LET ME MAKE THIS A ONE SHOT KILL, BECAUSE I THINK I’LL DIE IF I HAVE TO WALK AND CLINB ANYMORE… Read more »
I recently purchased some of the HSM .300 Rem Ultra Mag.
in 168gr. VLD.The ammo shoots better than I can.
I had 5 rnds inside each other or touching the 1st rnd.@ 100yds.
I will only purchase HSM hunting ammunition in the future if I find myself with not enough time to reload my own.
I tried their ammo, 45/70, 350gn copper metal jacket, shot 2 boxes, worst groups I’ve ever had. Emailed the company about this, never heard back from them. Good brass though, made for good reloads.
I have 7MM Rem Mag and have HSM berger 168 ‘VLD. I am reseating these out to touch the lands. I measured the powder charge at 66 Gr. What brand is the powder?
Are you going to manufacture 270 WSM with the 150 gr berger bullet any more? Every supplier is out !!
I wanted to try another brand of factory .243win.ammo because it was too late into deer season for me to load some of my own and range test them here in central Tx. Needless I was happily surprised that the 95gr VLD put my first 5 rounds in pretty much the same hole. I talked with some of my “serious” hunting friends and shared the results. They have all switched to the HSM Trophy Gold ammunition with absolutely no regrets. They,as well as myself are anchoring deer-sized game efficiently out to 300yds. I’m ordering some 308 168 TROPHY GOLD ammo… Read more »
