Description
Federal Power-Shok in .300 AAC Blackout is a practical hunting load built for shooters who want a reliable, field-ready round without paying a premium for match-grade packaging. The 150-grain jacketed soft point is designed to initiate controlled expansion on contact with game, delivering enough energy transfer to be effective on medium and big game at reasonable hunting distances. The soft point construction balances penetration with expansion — it won’t shed material as aggressively as a bonded premium bullet, but it provides consistent terminal performance within its intended velocity window, which the manufacturer puts at a minimum of 1,550 fps.
At the muzzle, this load launches at 1,900 fps, putting 1,202 foot-pounds of energy downrange. By 200 yards, velocity has dropped to around 1,490 fps — still well above the terminal performance threshold, which gives hunters a meaningful effective range on deer-sized animals. The ballistic coefficient of .330 reflects a standard hunting profile: adequate for field shooting distances, though wind drift becomes a meaningful factor past 300 yards. In a suppressed .300 Blackout build, the supersonic crack of this load means it is not designed as a subsonic option — it is a full-power hunting round.
Federal uses quality brass cases, reliable primers, and consistent propellant throughout the Power-Shok line. The result is a round that performs predictably across different rifles and barrel lengths without requiring the shooter to accept trade-offs in terminal effectiveness. For hunters who want a straightforward, affordable load that handles the field honestly, this is a sensible choice. Each box contains 20 rounds.
