The Federal Premium P300WP delivers exceptional terminal performance for big game hunting with its 180-grain Barnes TSX bullet design. This premium ammunition combines Federal's precision manufacturing with Barnes' proven all-copper construction for reliable expansion and deep penetration on large game animals.
What Makes This Different
The Barnes Triple-Shock X (TSX) bullet features an all-copper construction that retains 99% of its weight upon impact, unlike lead-core bullets that can fragment and lose mass. Four razor-sharp cutting petals create devastating wound channels while the bullet maintains its structural integrity through bone and heavy muscle. This design delivers consistent 1.5x diameter expansion across impact velocities from 1,800 to 3,000 fps.
Key Features
- 180-grain Barnes TSX all-copper bullet with proven weight retention
- Federal Premium brass cases with consistent wall thickness
- Optimized powder charge for 2,960 fps muzzle velocity

Field testing shows this load maintains sub-MOA accuracy in quality rifles while delivering over 2,800 ft-lbs of energy at the muzzle. The TSX bullet's deep penetration characteristics make it effective on elk, moose, and large African game at ranges extending to 400 yards. Weather-sealed primers and cases resist moisture in harsh hunting conditions, ensuring reliable function when it matters most.
