Federal Premium Terminal Ascent 30-06 Springfield ammunition brings match-grade long-range accuracy to big game hunting in a bonded construction that handles everything from close-quarters encounters to distant shots. Built on a 175-grain polymer tip bullet with a sleek profile, this round delivers the flat trajectory and consistent expansion you need across the full spectrum of hunting scenarios. The 20-round box gives you a practical hunting load that balances performance with value.
The Terminal Ascent's engineering starts with Federal's Slipstream polymer tip, which is engineered to initiate expansion at velocities 200 fps lower than comparable designs—meaning faster, more reliable performance when velocity is lower at extended range or when you connect on close targets. The bonded lead core and copper shank work together to retain weight through tough hide and bone, ensuring penetration from any distance without fragmenting prematurely. That combination of controlled expansion and deep penetration is what separates a hunting round from a target load.
Accuracy is built in through AccuChannel groove technology, which minimizes aerodynamic drag and improves consistency. With a ballistic coefficient of .536 and a muzzle velocity of 2730 fps, you're looking at a bullet that resists wind drift and drop better than conventional designs—crucial when you're stretching your effective range or hunting in variable conditions. Whether you're glassing from a ridge top or setting up in familiar territory, Terminal Ascent ammunition lets you trust your shot placement at the distances that matter.
| Caliber | 30-06 Springfield |
| Bullet Weight | 175 Grains |
| Bullet Type | Terminal Ascent Polymer Tip, Bonded, Boat Tail |
| Ballistic Coefficient | .536 |
| Muzzle Velocity | 2730 fps |
| Round Count | 20 Rounds |
| Intended Use | Big Game Hunting |
The .536 ballistic coefficient combined with the sleek boat tail profile means this bullet fights wind and gravity better than heavier, blunter designs. You'll see less drop and less drift as range increases, which translates to tighter shooting windows and more reliable hits on game.
Federal's Slipstream tip is designed to expand reliably at velocities 200 fps lower than traditional polymer tips. That matters because it ensures consistent, controlled expansion even when velocity has dropped at distance, while still performing on closer shots where velocity is higher.
Yes. The bonded construction retains weight and penetrates deep on close targets, while the aerodynamic design and low-velocity expansion characteristics make it equally effective at extended range. It's built to perform across the hunting distances most big game hunters actually encounter.
The lead core is bonded to the copper shank, which keeps the bullet together and prevents fragmentation during impact. This means better weight retention and deeper penetration—important for ethical, reliable kills on larger game at any distance.
