Federal Ammunition 300 Winchester Short Magnum Edge TLR 200 Gr. 20/box
Hunting at long range requires an extremely accurate bullet that still expands, holds together and penetrates deep. That’s why Federal Premium® has developed the Edge TLR™. Unlike other so-called long-range projectiles that can fail to perform on impact at lower velocities, the Edge TLR uses the exclusive Slipstream™ polymer tip to initiate expansion at long range. At close range, the bullet’s copper shank and bonded lead core retain weight for consistent, lethal penetration. Its long, sleek profile offers an extremely high ballistic coefficient and AccuChannel™ groove technology improves accuracy and reduces drag.
Features:
- Match-grade long-range accuracy in a bonded hunting bullet
- High-performance polymer tip material provides the industry's highest heat resistance for the most consistent ballistics
- Extremely high ballistic coefficient
- Exclusive Slipstream™ tip helps flatten trajectories and initiate low-velocity expansion
- Less wind drift and drop
- AccuChannel™ groove technology minimizes drag
- Copper shank and bonded lead core retain weight for deep penetration at any range
- Demonstrated expansion at 900 yards

particular item.
The 300 Winchester Short Magnum (WSM) was introduced in 2001, the first of what would be several short, fat, unbelted magnums from Winchester, Remington, and Hornady. The theory (and reality) is that burning is more efficient when the propellant column is wider in relation to its length, allowing the primer to ignite a greater percentage of the charge. The burning curve is more efficient, and slightly more energy per grain of propellant is produced. Using a 2.1-inch case, the 300 WSM fits into a short (308 Winchest-length) action, yet produces velocity almost equal to the 300 Winchester Magnum, as examples a 150-grain bullet at 3270 feet per second and a 180-grain bullet at 2970. The 300 WSM was first in its class, and America loves its 30-calibers. As a result the 300 WSM has been the most popular of the new short, fat magnums, with ammunition from multiple sources and rifles chambered by numerous manufacturers.
