Federal Premium HammerDown ammo brings modern ballistic engineering to lever-action rifles, and the 35 Remington 220 Grain Bonded JHP load is purpose-built to make your classic rifle shoot harder and more reliably. Unlike generic rifle ammunition adapted from other platforms, HammerDown rounds are engineered from the ground up for lever guns—accounting for the unique velocities, feeding systems, and ballistic demands of tubular magazines and side-gate loading. The 220 grain bonded soft-point bullet is tuned to deliver consistent expansion and weight retention at the velocities lever-action barrels naturally produce, giving you terminal performance that matches your rifle's actual capability rather than fighting against it.
Whether you're hunting medium game with a vintage Winchester, Marlin, or Savage lever gun, or just want ammunition that feeds flawlessly and shoots true, HammerDown delivers on both counts. The case geometry and bullet design work together to ensure smooth, reliable feeding through tubular magazines without the feeding issues or accuracy surprises that come with ammunition designed for other rifle types. You get 20 rounds per box, loaded to pressures and velocities optimized for the lever-action platform.
Lever-action rifles deserve ammunition that respects their design. Federal's HammerDown line does exactly that, combining proven bonded-bullet construction with case and load development that treats your rifle as the specialized tool it is.

Yes. HammerDown ammunition is specifically engineered for tubular magazine feeding systems and side-gate loading found on lever-action rifles. The modified chamfered case design ensures flawless cycling through typical lever-action feeding mechanisms.
The 220 grain bonded soft-point bullet is designed to deliver expansion and weight retention appropriate for medium game hunting at the velocities typical of lever-action barrels. The load is engineered specifically for the performance characteristics of lever guns rather than other rifle types.
HammerDown rounds are purpose-built for lever-action rifles. The velocities, bullet design, case geometry, and overall construction are all optimized for how lever guns actually perform, rather than using ammunition designed for other platforms adapted to your rifle.
Each box contains 20 rounds of Federal Premium HammerDown 35 Remington ammunition.
