"Full Description:\nFederal’s 7mm Backcountry is an entirely new high-performance, all-range cartridge that reinvents ammunition as we know it. It not only provides superior ballistics and terminal performance, it does so through compact, shorter-barreled suppressed rifles. The 7mm Backcountry cartridge achieves all of this through its patented Peak Alloy case. The next-generation, one-piece design allows higher velocities over modern brass case ammunition. And because the cartridge is dimensionally smaller than its closest brass-case counterparts, 7mm Backcountry achieves these ballistic advantages through smaller rifles and with an extra round in the magazine of most platforms. In developing 7mm Backcountry, Federal’s team of engineers set out to design a cartridge that answers a market need that seemed unsolvable—magnum velocity out of shorter barrels without increasing recoil. They did, but in the process they produced true innovation, creating a new way to make rifle ammunition faster, flatter shooting and more powerful. Barnes LRX: Armed with a high ballistic coefficient, polymer tip and unique nose cavity, the all-copper Barnes LRX takes down tough game at both close range and extended distances. With 7mm Backcountry, hunters shooting suppressed, compact rifles get back magnum velocities through 20-inch barrels. Due to its safe higher chamber pressures, a 7mm Backcountry 170-grain Terminal Ascent shot through a 24-inch barrel gives you a muzzle velocity of around 3150 fps, whereas a 7mm PRC with the same bullet generates about 3000 fps. Through a 20-inch barrel, 7mm Backcountry shoots approximately 3000 fps while the 7 PRC is only approximately 2850 fps. A cartridge that changes the very nature of ammunition demands a rifle to match. That’s why Federal engaged with some of the industry’s top gun companies during the development of 7mm Backcountry. In total, more than 80 individual rifle models are available as of launch, with more coming soon. Patented Peak Alloy case technology is fundamentally different than brass cases. Created in response to U.S. military solicitations, it utilizes a proprietary steel alloy that includes other unique elements. This same alloy is used in manufacturing safes, nuclear reactors and other high-strength applications. Peak Alloy allows Federal to safely increase chamber pressures far beyond the limits of brass case ammunition, significantly increasing velocity and energy. The Peak Alloy case is also reloadable when following Federal’s lab-tested processes and data.\n\nFeatures:\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>3,000 fps with 168-grain bullets through 20-inch barrels\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Peak Alloy Case Technology: Patented, one-piece, high-strength, next-generation steel alloy case\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Outperforms conventional brass-case ammunition\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Optimized for shorter barrels to maximize velocity in compact or suppressed rifles\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Increased magazine capacity over magnum cartridges\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\nSpecifications:\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Part #: P7BCLRX\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>UPC: 604544700763\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Caliber: 7mm Backcountry [7MM-BC]\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Bullet Style: Barnes LRX\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Package Quantity: 20 Rounds\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Usage: Big Game\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>168gr Muzzle Velocity: 3000 fps - 20 in barrel.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>168gr Muzzle Velocity: 3150 fps - 24 in barrel.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n"
