Details
The lever-action rifle’s design may be over 150 yeard old, but that doesn’t mean its ammunition can’t benefit from state-of-the-art engineering. When you hunt with HammerDown 35 Remington, you’re tapping into Federal and Henry’s combined research into lever gun ammo exceptionalism.
Don’t go back in time to 1860 and start looking for bonded bullets. You won’t find any, and you’ll certainly find none of Federal’s molecularly bonded soft points. The 220 grain bullet’s jacket is tightly fused to its lead core, so heavy impact won’t fragment them too violently apart. The SP’s flat lead tip easily yields to wide expansion as the bullet burrows deeply through deer, hog, coyote, you get it.
Like its bullets, this ammo’s cases are shaped for optimal performance in a lever gun. They are specially chamfered, and plated in nickel that reduces metal-on-metal friction inside the action. And thanks to its high-quality powder, you can count on this ammo reliably to send 1,000 ft lbs of force out to 217 yards (0.263 G1 BC).
