The Federal Premium Terminal Ascent 6.5 PRC 140-grain ammunition delivers exceptional long-range performance with bonded construction that maintains weight retention through tough barriers. This premium hunting cartridge combines the ballistic coefficient advantages of polymer-tipped bullets with the terminal reliability that serious hunters demand.

What Makes This Different

The AccuChannel groove technology reduces drag while the solid copper shank ensures consistent expansion from 200 yards to beyond 800 yards. Federal's nickel-plated cases provide smooth feeding and corrosion resistance that standard brass cannot match.
