Details
The varmints and predators never take a day off. They’re always out there, doing varmint and predator things. You have to stop them. Order yourself the whole dang case of Federal Premium’s Varmint & Predator label 5.56x45 ammunition and start doing what you do best: shooting varmints and predators!
This is a flat-shooting cartridge. Its 3,100 fps muzzle velocity gives its 50 grain bullet a 0.204 G1 ballistic coefficient, which means its trajectory should only rise above the muzzle line by approximately 2.55” before it hits a 200-yard target. The bullet also reaches 225 yards with approximately 500 ft lbs of energy, which should prove sufficient for humanely killing all but the most monstrous coyote.
If you understand why the jacketed hollow point is preferred for defensive shooting, then you already know what makes it so deadly to small game. The JHP initiates terminal expansion the second it enters its target, mushrooming outward to punch a wide injury into the quarry. Federal’s Boxer-primed brass cases are also reloadable, so you’ll come back from your hunt with good components in addition to good stories.

Q: Are the 500 Rounds of 5.56x45 Ammo by Federal Varmint & Predator - 50gr JHP reloads?
Posted On: 3/19/2023 By: Ted
A: No sir, this ammo and all its components are brand new. The cases are only cosmetically discolored because Federal did not polish them after the brass was annealed for added durability.
