The Federal P270TA1 Terminal Ascent ammunition delivers exceptional long-range performance for hunters pursuing big game at extended distances. This premium 270 Winchester load combines Federal's advanced bullet technology with consistent powder charges to maximize accuracy and terminal effectiveness.
What Makes This Different
Terminal Ascent bullets feature a unique copper shank bonded to a lead core, topped with a polymer tip for enhanced ballistic coefficient. The AccuChannel groove technology reduces bearing surface friction while maintaining structural integrity through controlled expansion. This design delivers 20% higher retained weight compared to standard hunting bullets, ensuring deep penetration on large game animals.
Key Features
- 136-grain Terminal Ascent bullet with bonded construction for maximum weight retention
- Polymer tip initiates expansion while improving ballistic coefficient for flatter trajectory
- AccuChannel groove technology reduces engraving forces and barrel fouling
- Nickel-plated brass cases resist corrosion and ensure smooth feeding
- Federal's Gold Medal match primers provide consistent ignition
- Factory-loaded to SAAMI specifications for reliable chamber pressures
- 20 rounds per box packaging for hunting applications
Field testing demonstrates consistent sub-MOA accuracy in quality bolt-action rifles, with effective range extending beyond 500 yards on medium to large game. The bonded bullet construction maintains 85-90% weight retention through heavy bone and muscle tissue. Weather-sealed primer pockets and case mouths protect against moisture during extended hunting trips in adverse conditions.
