2015 CA T AL OG - Federal Premium Ammunition

2015 CATALOG
EVERY SHOT COUNTS®
FEDERAL premium®
Hunting. Target shooting. Competition. Personal
defense. These are serious pursuits, with serious
outcomes. Performance less than perfect is, simply,
failure. That’s the attitude that drives everything
we’ve done since 1977, when we made history
by developing the finest centerfire ammunition
to ever come off a factory line: Federal Premium®.
But we keep making Premium even better. Tighter
tolerances on accuracy and velocity. Tireless
quality checks. The industry’s best primers,
bullets, propellants and brass.
Our people also
make the difference—skilled,
dedicated
employees who
take pride in
crafting the
world’s best
ammunition for
the best hunters
and shooters.
Combined, it’s
what sets Federal
Premium products apart from
everything else.

hunters and shooters expect, but will also
pave the way for even more advancement
in years to come.
We serve shooters, and we take immense
pride in our work. It’s the Premium
Difference. Thank you for your loyalty
and continued support.

3rd Degree™
Don’t Miss The Action
As turkey loads have been engineered to pattern
more tightly and reach farther, they have also become less forgiving at close range. New 3rd Degree
uses a multi-shot, three-stage payload to deliver
larger, more lethal patterns inside of 20 yards while
providing the pattern density and energy needed to
flatten gobblers at 50-plus yards.

Vital•Shok® High Density® Buckshot
New Vital•Shok High Density Buckshot is fast becoming the shotshell load of choice for feral hog exterminators. They’ve proven that its 9-pellet 00 buck
non-lead payload and blistering 1,600 fps muzzle
velocity give it similar stopping power as lead loads. It
also offers manageable recoil and consistent, deadly
patterns for coyotes, deer and pigs.

features a polymer
tip, with a deep,
hollow cavity and
skiving that allows

premium® RIFLE
A shot at a giant buck, bull or bear isn’t just a
few-second encounter. It’s months of scouting,
miles of boot leather and countless hours of
glassing. We understand this, and it’s why our
Premium® Vital-Shok™ loads boast the ultimate in
accuracy and performance. The
wide array of offerings are built
to our tightest tolerances and
subjected to the most tireless
quality checks—only cartridges
that meet our stringent specifications see the inside of a
Vital-Shok box. That’s why you
can count on them for the shot
Mule deer need your help. The Mule Deer
of a lifetime.

American West, protect and enhance its habitat,

deer and black-tail populations. MDF also introduces
more than 10,000 youth each year to shooting

Trophy Bonded® Tip In 223 Rem.
Our new Trophy Bonded® Tip 223 Rem. load will change perceptions of the cartridge for use on big game, especially as more
hunters bring modern sporting rifles afield. The bullet’s high

When fractions of an inch decide success and failure,
chamber what world-class shooters, as well as military and law enforcement officials, consider to be the
world’s most accurate factory-made ammunition:
Gold Medal®. Thanks to components
including match-grade primers, the
Sierra® MatchKing® boat-tail bullet,
BALLISTICS CALCULATOR
and stable, consistent propellants,
these precision-built rifle loads
perform to the highest levels possible.
The Federal Premium®
online Ballistics Calculator lets users quickly determine wind drift, vertical
drop, velocity and energy out to 2,000 yards for any
rifle or handgun load.
Shooters can manipulate variables such as temperature, elevation, wind speed, sight height and zero
range. The calculator displays results in inches, centimeters, MOA or mils. Users who create a profile can
save an unlimited number of loads for future reference.
The tool’s responsive design makes it easy to use on
any platform, including mobile devices.
Check it out at federalpremium.com.

GM260M uses a 142-grain Sierra® MatchKing® with a higher muzzle velocity and better
average ballistic coefficient than competing 6.5 Creedmoor 140-grain A-MAX® and 6.5x47
Lapua 139-grain Scenar factory loadings.
Gold Medal® accuracy: This amazing .81-inch
10-shot group was shot with 168-grain 308
Win. Sierra® MatchKing® (GM308M) from an
accuracy barrel at 200 yards.
GM260M has better ballistics at 1,000 yards than many competing 6.5mm cartridges:
• 4 percent less drop and 3 percent less wind drift than 6.5 Creedmoor with 140-grain A-MAX
• 8 percent less drop and 11 percent less wind drift than 6.5x47mm Lapua with 139-grain Scenar
GM260M has the least amount of wind drift of all Gold Medal® products, making wind
calls more forgiving.

These trajectory tables were calculated by computer using the best available data for each load. Trajectories are representative of the nominal behavior of each load at standard conditions (59°F
temperature; barometric pressure of 29.53 inches; altitude at sea level). Shooters are cautioned that actual trajectories may differ due to variations in altitude, atmospheric conditions, guns,
sights and ammunition.

These trajectory tables were calculated by computer using the best available data for each load. Trajectories are representative of the nominal behavior of each load at standard conditions
(59°F temperature; barometric pressure of 29.53 inches; altitude at sea level). Shooters are cautioned that actual trajectories may differ due to variations in altitude, atmospheric conditions,
guns, sights and ammunition.

Usage Key: 1 = Varmints, predators, small game 2 = Medium game 3 = Large, heavy game 4 = Dangerous game 5 = Target shooting, training, practice 6 = Self defense
These trajectory tables were calculated by computer using the best available data for each load. Trajectories are representative of the nominal behavior of each load at standard conditions
(59°F temperature; barometric pressure of 29.53 inches; altitude at sea level). Shooters are cautioned that actual trajectories may differ due to variations in altitude, atmospheric conditions,
guns, sights and ammunition.

Usage Key: 1 = Varmints, predators, small game 2 = Medium game 3 = Large, heavy game 4 = Dangerous game 5 = Target shooting, training, practice 6 = Self defense
These trajectory tables were calculated by computer using the best available data for each load. Trajectories are representative of the nominal behavior of each load at standard conditions
(59°F temperature; barometric pressure of 29.53 inches; altitude at sea level). Shooters are cautioned that actual trajectories may differ due to variations in altitude, atmospheric conditions,
guns, sights and ammunition.

HANDGUN
RIFLE
Handgun hunting is supposed to be a challenge, but
that doesn’t mean hunters need to settle for less than
peak performance. Federal Premium® Vital-Shok™
handgun hunting loads feature high-quality bullets
and superior construction, and they’re loaded under
the industry’s tightest tolerances. Whether you choose
the all-new Trophy Bonded® Jacketed Soft Point chambered in the full-power 10mm
Auto, or one of our proven
Swift® A-Frame® loads, you
will be up to any test big
game can deliver.
Full-Power
10mm Aut o
Although the 10mm Auto was originally intended for law
enforcement, the FBI deemed its recoil too heavy, which
pushed ammunition manufacturers to weaken most offerings to produce ballistics almost identical to the 40 S&W.
Our new Vital-Shok ™ load is a full-power cartridge that takes
complete advantage of the caliber’s true capability, creating
an ideal hunting load for bears, hogs, deer and more.

HANDGUN
RIFLE
When you have to defend your home, you don’t
just need a round that eliminates the threat—you
need one that reduces the risk to family members in
other rooms. We used our patented expanding FMJ
bullet technology to create a round that minimizes
over-penetration through interior walls: award-winning Guard Dog®. The bullet’s fully enclosed nose
collapses on impact with wallboard and never plugs
with barrier material. Like all Federal Premium® centerfire offerings, it’s loaded with
the most reliable primers,
consistent powders and
the highest-quality brass.
It’s the ultimate option for
in-home defense.
Guard Dog® Home Defense
These non-hollow-point expanding FMJ bullets are filled with an
expanding blue polymer that minimizes the probability of
injury to loved ones nearby. This one-of-a-kind bullet design
is fully enclosed which means it never fills with barrier
material and it collapses on impact every time.

NOTE: Results of internal testing. Individual results may not be identical.
In this test, Guard Dog ® shows superior expansion performance
through wall barriers. PD40GRD shot at 15 feet expands on contact for
maximum energy transfer. Most conventional hollow points do not
reliably expand through wallboard allowing the bullet to pass through
more walls.
Results: Guard Dog® did not
penetrate the gelatin when shot
through three or four walls.
Conventional JHPs penetrate more
than 12 inches after four walls.

Superior Performance In FBI Protocol
9mm Luger Average: All FBI Barriers
When law enforcement agencies choose a duty round, they use the FBI’s demanding protocol testing
to see how different loads compare, and then trust their lives to the one that performs best. From
coast-to-coast, they choose HST. In our internal testing, HST 45 Auto (P45HST2S), 40 S&W (P40HST1S)
and 9mm Luger (P9HST1S) all scored exceptionally high in every protocol test, providing superior
performance within their respective calibers. Since HST performs this well in the toughest scenarios
law enforcement faces, you know it’s more than enough to handle any personal defense situation.

Handgun® And
RIFLEShotshell
Personal defense is one of the most demanding
and specialized applications for shotshells.
That’s why we put a tremendous amount of
research and rigorous testing into developing
the Federal Premium® Personal Defense® shotshell line. These loads—available in 410 handgun and 12- and 20-gauge—produce optimal
patterns and penetration for self-defense
situations. Rely on them to
eliminate any danger.
JUDGE LOADS
Our 410 handgun shotshells are designed for the Judge from
Taurus. A unique wad system for the rifled barrel means great
patterns. Special brass heads ensure smooth extraction. Our
Personal Defense® 410 handgun rounds also function well in
firearms recently developed by other manufacturers.

Target shot with 12-gauge 2 3/4-inch
4 Buck, 34 pellets (PD156 4B) with
improved cylinder choke at 5 yards.
Why 4 Buck?
We tested large and small, hard and soft, shot to create the most reliable loads for personal defense
situations. The size and weight of 4 buckshot and deformation characteristics of 0 antimony lead help
dissipate energy after hitting a wall. By combining our 4B lead and unique wad system designed for
15-foot patterns, we’re able to control penetration and shot spread. Our 4B loads give you enough
penetration to stop intruders and minimize the effects of wall penetration.

HANDGUN
gold medal® handgun
Target shot with 185-grain 45 Auto Gold Medal (GM45B) from a Springfield
Trophy Match at 25 yards, open sights from rest. Gold Medal’s award-winning
accuracy—five-round group, 0.450-inch extreme spread.
american eagle® Suppressor
Shooters can get substantial noise reduction without sacrificing accuracy
or reliability. American Eagle Suppressor rounds perform to their ballistic
peak in suppressed firearms, thanks to carefully selected propellants, bullet
weights and primers. Their sub-sonic loading eliminates the super-sonic
“crack” suppressors can’t silence. In addition, special clean-burning powders minimize fouling while reliably functioning in semi-automatic firearms.
Suppressor loads are priced for volume shooting.

SHOTSHELL
RIFLE
Federal was the first to introduce a unique wadshot system that has proven highly successful in the
field—the rear-braking FLITECONTROL® wad
and cutting edge FLITESTOPPER® pellets. Black
Cloud® helped put the FLITECONTROL wad on the
map, and its performance remains unmatched. Over
the years, our product development team optimized
this system for new platforms. Today you’ll find the
FLITECONTROL wad combined with shot to match
it in our pheasant, turkey, waterfowl and buckshot
offerings. Learn what makes the FLITECONTROL
wad, and the payloads it’s combined with, so much
different. And so much better.
FLITESTOPPER® TECHNOLOGY
1 Cutting edge: Get cutting power
with no loss of penetration.
FLITESTOPPER pellets create
a massive wound cavity that
devastates game on impact.
2 Shot mix: By staging
FLITESTOPPER pellets with
different proportions of standard
round shot, we’re able to
control the pattern and flight
characteristics and tailor them to
specific applications.
42
SHOTSHELL RESOURCE GUIDE
The Science Of FLITECONTROL ®
1
2
Petals: Open in the rear to create
an air brake. This separates the wad
and shot at the perfect time and
leads to consistent, dense patterns.
Windows: Open on side of wad to
allow air in and help stimulate the
payload for separation from the wad.
3
Payload: FLITECONTROL wad is combined with unique shot
types tailored to the target game species to get
optimum performance.
Special Wads, Specific
Applications
Although all FLITECONTROL® wads work on the same
design principle, they vary from one Federal Premium®
offering to the next.
The difference can be found in subtle variations in
the wad’s rear-opening petals and the height of the
window openings. Our engineers adjust these
features to dial in when the wad releases from the
payload. Combined with specialized shot, the system
results in a pattern that’s tailor-made for the situation—
whether it’s decoying ducks at close range, dropping
a high-flying rooster or taking down a hung-up
gobbler.
conventional wad
Conventional wads peel from the front, allowing pellets to
scatter widely. This means fewer pellets on target, less impact
energy and fewer downed birds.

Thanks to Federal Premium® slugs, shotguns are no
longer short-range firearms—they are true precision
shooting instruments. Our Trophy® Copper Sabot
Slug offers unparalleled accuracy through rifled barrels, and the TruBall® rifled slug provides smoothbore
shooters a long-awaited edge
on big game. Forget what you
think you know about slug accuracy and range—these loads
change everything.
TRUBALL® SMOOTHBORE OPTIONS
The TruBall® rifled slug system is the most consistent group-togroup smoothbore slug on the market. It’s capable of taking a
five-shot 4.5-inch spread of conventional smoothbore slugs and
shrinking it to 1.4-inch at 50 yards. The TruBall system locks the
components together, centering and pushing the slug out of the
barrel. This promotes clean separation of components after
muzzle exit to ensure greater downrange accuracy.

PREMIUM® BIG GAME
THE NEW STANDARD IN
200-YARD ACCURACY
Trophy ® Copper Construction
Unique two-part sabot design provides superior projectile base support and a clean
launch mechanism for the ultimate slug accuracy
Deep, externally skived
slug cavity for consistent,
superior penetration across
a broad velocity range
Patent Pending
Polymer tip and sleek
profile increase the
ballistic coefficient for
higher downrange
velocity and energy
The wad’s “pusher plate” keeps the slug
perfectly centered down the barrel.

These trajectory tables were calculated by computer using the best available data for each load. Trajectories are representative of the nominal behavior of each
load at standard conditions (59°F temperature; barometric pressure of 29.53 inches; altitude at sea level). Shooters are cautioned that actual trajectories may
differ due to variations in altitude, atmospheric conditions, guns, sights and ammunition.
NOTE: For optimum slug performance, we recommend matching the chamber length to the slug length. For example, use a 3-inch slug in a 3-inch chamber.

These trajectory tables were calculated by computer using the best available data for each load. Trajectories are representative of the nominal behavior
of each load at standard conditions (59°F temperature; barometric pressure of 29.53 inches; altitude at sea level). Shooters are cautioned that actual
trajectories may differ due to variations in altitude, atmospheric conditions, guns, sights and ammunition.

SHOTSHELL
RIFLE
Hunting isn’t always a long-distance chess match—
sometimes it’s an up-close-and-personal brawl.
Buckshot often gets dismissed as the stuff of simple
scatterguns, but at Federal Premium®, we engineer
these shotshells to provide the same performance
as all of our other loads. Technologies like the
FLITECONTROL® wad and our new High Density®
shot allow buckshot loads to produce
precise, deadly patterns. So when a
sly dog sneaks into your lap, or you
close the distance on a monster hog,
put them in the dirt with one of our
fine-tuned shotshells.
High Density®
Our new Vital·Shok® High Density Buckshot load’s 9-pellet 00
buck non-lead payload and blistering 1,600 fps muzzle velocity
give it superb stopping power, manageable recoil,
and consistent, deadly patterns. Those qualities make it an
excellent choice whether you hunt coyotes, deer or pigs.

As turkey loads have been engineered to pattern
more tightly and reach farther, they have also become
less forgiving at close range, leading to missed birds.
New Federal Premium® 3rd Degree™ uses a multishot, three-stage payload and the

deliver forgiving, lethal patterns
whether a gobbler is standing 10
yards out—or 50-plus. It’s the most

produced.

Grouse or pheasants; quail or partridge—if you hunt
upland birds, you work for every flush. When a bird
gets up, make it happen with Federal Premium®

copper-plated lead shot, Federal Premium hulls and
brass-plated heads for peak performance. With our
Hunters For Conservation®
wide array of offerings, you’ll find the perfect load to match your type of hunting.
Hunters have always been the cornerstone of conservation in America. We support it through hunting license fees
and through the Pittman-Robertson excise tax on guns and
ammunition. These taxes have raised more than $7.1 billion
since 1937. Hunters also passed the laws that created seasons
and bag limits to sustain game populations. Our efforts
brought back the wild turkey, white-tailed deer and elk, but
they have also enabled the recovery of the bald eagle and
countless non-game species. At Federal Premium® we are
committed to conservation because our future depends on
it. For more information on how Federal Premium supports
conservation through our Hunters For Conservation
program, go to federalpremium.com, or check us out

Tom Knapp Memorial Scholarship
In 2013, Federal Premium
Ammunition and the rest of the outdoor industry lost a dear
friend, legendary exhibition shooter Tom Knapp. To honor his memory and his dedication to
passing on his love of the shooting sports, Federal Premium and Knapp’s wife, Colleen, created
the Tom Knapp Memorial Scholarship.
®
The program awards $5,000 to one male and one female college-bound student, chosen from
applicants in the Minnesota State High School Clay Target League.
In 2014, the scholarships went to Tyler Koenen of Alden, Minnesota, and Jenna Jahnke of
Stillwater, Minnesota. Koenen applied his scholarship to an education in mechanical engineering
at Iowa State University, while Jahnke used
her award at Minnesota’s Century College,
where she would study accounting.
Considering the success of the scholarship, Colleen Knapp has generously agreed to extend the
program into 2015 and beyond.
For information of the 2015 Tom Knapp Memorial Scholarship, visit federalpremium.com.

These trajectory tables were calculated by computer using the best available data for each load. Trajectories are representative of the nominal behavior
of each load at standard conditions (59°F temperature; barometric pressure of 29.53 inches; altitude at sea level). Shooters are cautioned that actual
trajectories may differ due to variations in altitude, atmospheric conditions, guns, sights and ammunition.
Bring home the venison with these reliable loads. You get great
performance at an unbeatable price.

MUZZLELOADING
RIFLE
Over the past few decades, muzzleloaders have evolved
into remarkable firearms. But bullets have always lagged
behind, limiting range, accuracy and terminal performance. Federal Premium’s B.O.R. Lock MZ™ System
changes everything. No detaching sabot, no belt—it’s a
whole new class of bullet. Consistent. Accurate. Easy to
Clean & Easy Loading
The rear of the B.O.R. Lock MZ™ cup features a hard,
fiber-reinforced polymer ring that scours fouling from the
breech as the bullet is pushed into place. This decreases
the need to clean between shots and makes it easy to seat
the bullet at the exact same depth for every shot. Because
there’s no bulky sabot, required loading force averages
about half that of most sabot bullets.
load. A true 200-yard muzzleloader projectile. Its exclusive,
Colorado-legal system efficiently engages the rifling and
seals the bore, optimizing velocity and accuracy.
So whether you choose the Trophy® Copper
bullet or our hard-hitting lead option, you’ll
transform your muzzleloader into the longrange performer it can be.
Consistent And Deadly
The new Trophy® Copper Muzzleloader Bullet’s B.O.R. Lock MZ™
system deserves most of the credit for its long-range accuracy
and consistency. But it owes its terminal performance to the
proven Trophy Copper bullet design. The all-copper projectile
features a polymer tip, with a deep, hollow cavity and skiving
that provides consistent, devastating expansion. Its high ballistic
coefficient produces a flat trajectory and minimal wind drift.

200-Yard ACCURACY
B.O.R. LOCK MZ™ IN ACTION
Pre-Ignition
Before ignition, the polymer cup remains positioned at the rear of the bullet, with the
forward obturating ramp exposed. At this point, only the fiber-reinforced base of the
cup is in contact with the barrel.
Ignition
At ignition, the polymer cup slides forward and over both obturating ramps, creating
the bullet’s bearing surface and engaging the rifling. The resulting gas seal is incredibly efficient, optimizing accuracy, velocity, consistency and shooter confidence.

AND VALUE
RIFLE RIMFIRE
Rimfire means different things to different shooters. For some, it’s high-stakes competition and for
others it’s backyard plinking fun. Some use rimfire
loads to out-match varmints and predators, while
others put small game in the pot. Whatever drives
you, Federal Premium® offers rimfire loads with
the performance you need. Our V Shok® rounds
are fine-tuned to the needs of varmint
hunters, and Gold Medal® loads are
precision made for intense competition.
RIMFIRE AVAILABILITY
All shooters know the score—for years, rimfire ammunition
has been difficult to find at retail. The reason is simple:
Consumer demand outpaced the industry’s manufacturing
capabilities. We’ve increased manufacturing capacity and
dedicated employees are working 24 hours a day, seven
days a week to fulfill demand. Thank you for your patience
and loyalty.

FUSION®
Fusion® technology has transformed hunting—
whether you hunt whitetails or coyotes; elk or bears.
That’s thanks to construction processes that electrochemically fuse the bullet jacket to the
core for impressive weight retention
and game-dropping energy transfer.
The design puts unprecedented
power into the hands of serious
hunters, and you can get the same
lethal performance in Fusion Rifle,
MSR and Handgun.
FUSION® HANDGUN
Fusion handgun loads are specifically designed for hunting
whitetails. The bullet construction is exactly the same as
the line’s centerfire rifle counterparts for excellent toughness. In addition, velocities and recoils are intended for use
in the field.
