FED PWRSHK 2506 117GR SP 20/200

Description

Federal Power-Shok in .25-06 Remington is a working hunter’s load — priced to support practice and volume shooting in the field without sacrificing the terminal performance you need on deer, pronghorn, or similar medium to large game. The .25-06 is a fast, flat-shooting cartridge that earns its reputation at longer field distances, and this load is built to make the most of that capability without asking you to pay a premium-line price.

The 117-grain jacketed soft point bullet is a traditional lead-core design. That construction is deliberate: on impact, the exposed lead tip initiates controlled expansion while the jacket regulates how quickly that expansion unfolds, encouraging the bullet to hold together through enough tissue to reliably transfer energy. It is not a bonded or partition design, so it works best when shots are placed well and velocities are in a reasonable range — exactly the kind of hunting where the .25-06 excels. The ballistic coefficient of .361 means the bullet carries velocity and resists wind deflection reasonably well past moderate distances, making it a practical choice for open-country hunting where shots can stretch out.

Federal loads this round with brass cases using Boxer primers, which makes them fully reloadable — a meaningful consideration if you shoot enough volume to reclaim your brass. The brass, primers, and propellant are Federal’s own, which keeps the component quality consistent from lot to lot. At 3,030 fps at the muzzle, this load delivers genuine downrange energy without exotic materials or complicated bullet technology. For hunters who want dependable field performance from a well-established platform at a price that does not punish the practice sessions that make those shots count, Power-Shok is a straightforward answer.
