Federal Premium Edge TLR Ammunition

Federal Premium’s Edge TLR blends great bullet designs with the latest bonding technology and components to offer match-grade, long-range accuracy and reliable expansion at low velocities. It also provides high weight retention, deep penetration and lethal terminal performance up close. A large hollow cavity in the bullet nose along with exterior jacket skiving further aid expansion and penetration. Serrations allow petals to peel back on contact at velocities as low as 1,350 fps – velocities typically seen at 1,200 yards downrange in the 200-grain .30-caliber loads.

Federal Premium engineered the Edge TLR ammunition for proper expansion at a wide range of velocities – from the muzzle all the way out to extreme ranges where velocity falls off. At all distances within this window, the round expands within the first couple inches of entering the target and punches straight through, dumping energy in the process. A carefully designed nose paired with a completely new polymer tip helps make this possible.

Like many versatile bullets, Edge TLR also features grooving along the shank to improve accuracy across a range of rifles, while decreasing barrel wear and fouling. However, unlike conventional grooving, the AccuChannel technology used in Edge TLR accomplishes these goals with only a minimal increase in drag.

The cartridge is designed from the ground up to meet every aspect of all-range performance. The black-nickel finish on both bullet and case delivers corrosion resistance as well as a sleek look. The new Edge TLR is available in four offerings: 175-grain .308 Winchester, 175-grain .30-06 Springfield, 200-grain .300 Winchester Magnum and 200-grain .300 Winchester Short Mag.      federalpremium.com
