Federal Premium Terminal Ascent ammunition in 7mm PRC (brand part no. P7PRCTA3) loads a 170-grain bonded bullet built to perform at any range, from a close shot in thick timber to a stretch far beyond it. Bonded construction penetrates deep on close targets while the patented Slipstream polymer tip initiates expansion at velocities 200 fps lower than comparable designs, so the bullet still opens reliably once a long shot has bled off speed. The bullet’s long, sleek profile delivers an extremely high ballistic coefficient, and AccuChannel groove technology improves accuracy while minimizing drag, cutting wind drift and drop along the way. For 7mm PRC hunters who don’t want to guess how far the shot will be, this rifle ammunition is built to cover the range.
