Federal Custom Shop 6.5 PRC 130gr Terminal Ascent Ammo 20/Box

The Federal Custom Shop 6.5 PRC 130gr Terminal Ascent delivers exceptional long-range performance for precision shooters demanding consistent accuracy and reliable terminal ballistics. This premium hunting ammunition combines Federal's advanced bullet technology with match-grade components to extend effective range while maintaining devastating stopping power on big game.

What Makes This Different

The Terminal Ascent bullet features a unique bonded construction with a solid copper shank and lead core, providing controlled expansion at both high and low velocities. Unlike standard hunting bullets that lose effectiveness at extended ranges, the Terminal Ascent maintains expansion down to 1,400 fps impact velocity. The aerodynamic design achieves a ballistic coefficient of .520, significantly outperforming traditional cup-and-core bullets in wind drift and energy retention.
