Product Overview
Federal Power-Shok 150-grain is a jacketed soft point .300 Blackout hunting load made for big game. Its bullet leaves lead exposed at the nose over a lead core. It leaves the muzzle at 1,900 fps with 1,202 ft-lbs and has a G1 BC of .330.
Zeroed at 50 yards, it drops 1.2 inches at 100 and 13.3 inches at 200. From a 100-yard zero the 200-yard figure is 10.8 inches, the most of the hunting loads compared.
If you're cross-shopping, Hornady's Custom 135-grain FTX starts 185 fps faster on a lower G1 BC of .274 and from a 50-yard zero drops 10.8 inches at 200. Ammo Inc's 110-grain Spitzer is 500 fps faster at the muzzle with a polymer-tipped bullet.
- The heaviest hunting bullet in the caliber at 150 grains
- A higher G1 BC than Hornady's Custom 135-grain FTX at .274
- Still carrying 739 ft-lbs at 200 yards, more than Hornady's Custom 135-grain FTX
- The hardest-kicking .300 Blackout load compared, about 13 percent more estimated recoil than Hornady's Custom 135-grain FTX
- Lead exposed at the nose, so it is out where lead-free ammunition is required. Black Hills' 110-grain TTSX is the copper bullet in the caliber
