20rds – 7mm WSM Federal 160gr. Trophy Bonded Tip Ammo
Federal Ammunition 160 Grain Polymer Tipped Ammo Details
This 7mm WSM (Win Short Magnum) cartridge by Federal features the 160 grain Trophy Bonded Tip projectile. This bullet’s polymer tip works alongside its pressure relieving grooves to give it a very straight trajectory in flight -- the great energy exerted on impact drives that tip into the bullet’s core in order to initiate rapid expansion.The Trophy Bonded Tip has a very thick jacket, which along with its solid base enables it to penetrate game deeply, even through thick bone. The bullet’s exterior skiving complements that expansion’s effectiveness tremendously, and because this bullet’s core is so closely bonded to its jacket it’s able to exhibit optimal weight retention during penetration.
This round’s brass casing is plated with nickel, so you needn’t worry about sluggish extraction or corrosion. Its propellant burns clean and has copper reducing additives in it, and its Gold Medal primer is Federal’s very best.

In my experience, this is a great round. I had one-shot kills with the 160gr TBT with my Browning A-bolt in Namibia and Mozambique on Waterbuck, Blesbok, Impala and Springbok. Shots ranged from 150 - 310 yards. Using it for Elk in October of this year.

I bought this ammo for an elk trip to CO. I never did get a chance to use it, so as far as performance in the field, I don't know. At the range however it shot awesome out of my Browning X-Bolt. 1 1/2" groups at 200yds and less than 3 1/2" at 300yds, which is great for my shooting. Easily rang the 4" gong at 200yds.
