FED PRM 270WSM 130GR TRPHY C0PPER

Description

Federal Premium Trophy Copper in .270 WSM is built for hunters who need a bullet that holds together through bone and heavy muscle on medium to large big game — deer, elk, and similar animals at ranges where velocity has had time to drop. The copper construction is the core trade-off here: unlike a bonded lead-core bullet, the all-copper body has no jacket to separate, which is how Federal achieves weight retention of up to 99 percent. That retained mass translates directly into penetration depth, particularly relevant on quartering shots or when the bullet has to pass through the shoulder before reaching vitals.

The polymer tip does two jobs. It initiates expansion reliably across a wide velocity range, so the bullet performs consistently whether the shot is taken at 100 yards or pushed out to the distances this cartridge is capable of. It also raises the ballistic coefficient, which keeps the bullet from shedding velocity as quickly as a flat-base or open-tip design would at longer range. The boat-tail base works alongside the tip for the same reason — a cleaner base reduces drag and smooths the transition to stable flight.

The grooved shank along the bullet body reduces bearing surface contact with the bore. Less contact means less friction and less fouling accumulation, which matters practically because copper bullets can foul rifling more aggressively than jacketed lead-core designs. Federal’s groove pattern addresses that tendency and helps maintain consistent accuracy across a range of barrel twist rates. Each box contains 20 rounds.
