Federal P7BCTA32 BackCountry 7mm-08 170gr Terminal Ascent Ammo

The Federal P7BCTA32 BackCountry 7mm-08 Rem 170gr Terminal Ascent delivers exceptional long-range performance for serious hunters pursuing big game at extended distances. This premium hunting ammunition combines Federal's advanced Terminal Ascent bullet design with precise powder charges to maximize accuracy and terminal ballistics across varying conditions.

What Makes This Different

Terminal Ascent bullets feature a unique bonded construction with a solid copper shank and lead core, providing controlled expansion while maintaining deep penetration. The polymer tip initiates expansion at lower velocities compared to standard hunting bullets, ensuring reliable performance from 50 to 400+ yards. Federal's BackCountry line represents their premium hunting ammunition engineered specifically for demanding field conditions.

Key Features

• 170-grain Terminal Ascent bullet with bonded lead core and copper shank construction
• Polymer tip design ensures consistent expansion across velocity ranges
• Nickel-plated brass cases resist corrosion and provide smooth chambering

Field testing demonstrates this ammunition maintains accuracy under temperature extremes while delivering reliable expansion on medium to large game animals.
