This ground-breaking long-action hunting cartridge raises the bar for what a non-magnum, centerfire rifle hunting load can achieve. Fusion Tipped 175-grain and LRX 168-grain 7mm Backcountry loads are currently being delivered to retailers nationwide.
Federal’s 7mm Backcountry is a new high-performance hunting cartridge boosted by all-new, patented one-piece, high-strength Peak Alloy case technology, which provides magnum performance in a standard bolt face rifle. Through 20-inch barrels and with 170-grain bullets, it can achieve 3,000 feet per second. To learn more, visit https://www.federalpremium.com/backcountry.html.
The Federal-engineered Fusion Tipped 175-grain option will be popular among hunters already familiar with the Fusion lines of reliable, accurate big-game ammunition.
“Fusion Tipped was just released last year yet was born from its extremely popular Fusion soft-point cousin,” explained Miller. “Fusion’s molecular bonding paired with a streamlined polymer tip gives Fusion Tipped 7mm Backcountry the ability to go the distance and deliver a devastating blow to big game. This 175-grain bullet achieves 2,975 fps from a 20-inch barrel and has a G1 BC of .575.”
Federal’s Barnes LRX 168-grain load is specifically for those looking for an all-copper option.
“Armed with a high ballistic coefficient, polymer tip, and unique nose cavity, the all-copper LRX takes down tough game at both close range and extended distances,” continued Miller. “Barnes is a well-known, well-established brand that needs little explanation. This 168-grain bullet achieves 3,000 fps from a 20-inch barrel and has a G1 BC of .513.”
