“trophy bonded tip”

Whether you are a hunter, target shooter, competitor or all of the above, you need to be aware of the trends developing in the ammunition industry, as simply buying the same ammo you always have might mean giving up accuracy and performance.

If you’re someone who desires low recoil, be it from necessity or preference, or simply a hunter who’s keen on AR platforms, this little bullet can get the job done on small- to medium-sized game at close to moderate ranges. Again, don’t shoot the messenger. Get the right load—the Federal Premium Vital-Shok 62-grain .223 Rem. Trophy Bonded Tip is a great choice—and shoot a deer instead.

You’ve probably heard that kudu, eland, wildebeest and even impala are so tough from evading lions and leopards they’ll soak up bullets that would floor a North American brown bear. Nonsense.

Federal Premium has announced that it will be offering its Trophy Bonded Tip as a component bullet for handloading. The line will be available in six popular caliber and weight options.

If you’re in the market for a rifle that will cover the bases and cover them well, you could do an awful lot worse than a .280 Remington. If you shoot .280 Rem., you are already in the know.

Designing a line of long-range hunting ammunition involves many engineering considerations. Federal Premium might have cracked the code with its new Edge TLR (Terminal Long Range) ammo.

Released in 2006, the .338 Federal may be one of the wisest choices the big-game hunter who likes a lightweight, sweet-shooting, short-action rifle could make.
