Product Overview
Federal Premium Vital-Shok 140-grain Trophy Bonded Tip is a bonded 7mm Remington Magnum load made for big game. The jacket is fused to the lead core under a polymer tip. It leaves the muzzle at 3,150 fps with 3,085 ft-lbs and has a G1 BC of .430.
Zeroed at 200 yards, it drops 6.0 inches at 300 yards and 17.7 inches at 400 yards, arriving with 1,649 ft-lbs. From a 100-yard zero the drop at 400 yards is 22.8 inches. It kicks a shade less than Remington's Core-Lokt 140-grain PSP.
If you're cross-shopping, Winchester's Deer Season XP 140-grain carries the highest G1 BC of the 140-grain loads compared at .484 and from a 200-yard zero drops 17.6 inches at 400 yards. Remington's Core-Lokt 140-grain PSP starts 25 fps faster on a G1 BC of .390.
- A bonded core, the only one among the caliber's 140-grain loads
- Carries 1,943 ft-lbs at 300 yards
- More muzzle energy than Sellier & Bellot's 140-grain SP
- A bonded core, but still a lead one, so it is out where lead-free ammunition is required
- 48 ft-lbs less at the muzzle than Remington's Core-Lokt 140-grain PSP
- Behind Winchester's Deer Season XP 140-grain on G1 BC, .430 to .484
