Federal Premium Terminal Ascent .270 WSM 136gr

Federal Premium Terminal Ascent .270 WSM

The Terminal Ascent represents Federal Premium's commitment to delivering match-grade accuracy in a purpose-built hunting round. This cartridge pairs the proven .270 Winchester Short Magnum case with a 136-grain bonded bullet engineered for consistent performance from close range to extended distances.

Bullet Design and Performance

The Terminal Ascent bullet features bonded construction that keeps the copper jacket and lead core fused together, ensuring weight retention and deep penetration even after impact. The patented Slipstream polymer tip initiates expansion at velocities 200 fps lower than comparable designs, giving you reliable mushrooming even on distant shots where velocity has dropped.

Ballistics and Accuracy

• Muzzle velocity: 3,240 fps
• Extremely high ballistic coefficient for a flatter trajectory and reduced wind drift
• AccuChannel groove technology minimizes drag and improves accuracy
• Long, sleek bullet profile optimizes aerodynamics

What This Means for Hunters

Whether you're hunting at 100 yards or 400 yards, the Terminal Ascent delivers the controlled expansion and penetration needed for ethical, effective hunting. The bonded construction ensures the bullet stays together through bone and muscle, while the advanced tip design means you don't sacrifice expansion for velocity—expansion happens when and where it should.
