Get an inside look at the development and launch of Federal Premium Terminal Ascent. It penetrates deep at any range, offers the highest BCs in its class, and expands at longer distances than any comparable design
Lethal extreme-range bullet performance doesn't look like the 2x expansion hunters see at conventional distances—it's not supposed to. With petals that open instantly and peel back uniformly every time, the Terminal Ascent transfers more energy to the animal on impact and carves straight, deadly wound channels at all velocities.
When we launched Federal Premium Terminal Ascent, it rewrote the book on hunting bullet design. These videos reveal the key features that set it apart.
With the combined power of robust bonding, the Slipstream polymer tip and AccuChannel grooving, Terminal Ascent achieves what no other bullet can—true all-range accuracy and terminal performance.
With an exclusive hollow core, the Slipstream polymer tip initiates expansion of Terminal Ascent’s bonded jacket and core at distances far beyond the effective limits of comparable bullets.
Although typical bullet grooving can hit ballistic coefficients hard, Terminal Ascent uses AccuChannel groove technology to minimize drag while providing better accuracy across a wider range of rifles.
"Wide open country, long shots and stiff winds don't have a thing on Terminal Ascent. Nothing shoots like this."
"Terminal Ascent hits bucks hard. It's without a doubt the best bullet I've ever shot."
Long-range accuracy and all-range terminal performance has earned Federal Premium Terminal Ascent a new honor: the Golden Bullseye Award for Ammunition Product of the Year from American Rifleman magazine. Golden Bullseye winners are selected by a seven-member committee of editors and veteran NRA Publications staff with more than a century of combined experience in shooting and hunting.
All-new Terminal Ascent combines both hunting and match bullet features to create the best all-range, all-velocity big game ammunition ever. Learn how our engineers leveraged nearly a century of ammunition expertise and our latest technologies to make the impossible become reality.
