History of Federal 45-70 Ammo

Key Features of Federal 45-70 Ammo:

  • Legacy of Precision: Since 1922, Federal has been at the forefront of ammunition innovation, and their 45-70 continues this tradition with unmatched accuracy and stopping power.
  • Bullet Options for Every Shooter: Jacketed soft points are perfect for taking down deer, and bonded jacket lead core bullets penetrate deep on even the toughest game, like grizzly bears and moose.
  • Power for Big Game: The 300 grain bullets offer enough stopping power for all North American game animals and many African big game animals.

Federal 45-70 ammo has made a name for itself as one of the top sporting rounds. Considered by many as the cartridge that won the West, Federal 45-70 pays homage to that legacy with its Federal Premium 45-70 ammunition. Crafted with the finest components and charged with precision, Federal Premium 45-70 Government ammo is an excellent choice for any big game hunt. The 45-70 Government has been a mainstay for hunting moose, bison, bear, and elk for well over a century. Although the 405 grain offerings are powerful, most hunters prefer the lighter and faster 300 grain Federal 45-70 ammo for deeper penetration.

Use Cases for Federal 45-70 Govt. Ammo:

  • Big Game Hunting: Choose Fusion or Power-Shok for deer-sized game animals and Hammer Down or Trophy Bonded Bear Claw for large and dangerous game animals.
  • Cowboy Action Shooting: Hammer Down is specifically designed for lever-action rifles, making it a solid choice for Cowboy Action Shooting competitions.
