The Federal Premium Rifle Ammo 7mm Backcountry 168 gr. Barnes LRX is a hunting and long-range shooters go-to within the Federal Premium line, pairing the Barnes LRX all-copper bullet with Gold Medal primers and a Peak Alloy steel case for reliable feeding and magnum-class performance from compact, shorter-barreled and suppressed rifles. Youll notice the Doppler radar-optimized bullet profile and high ballistic coefficient polymer tip deliver low drag and retained velocity at extended distances while the re-engineered nose cavity and precision heel radius drive controlled expansion and deep penetration on big game at both close and long ranges. This 168-grain 7mm Backcountry offering is optimized to maximize velocity in shorter barrels and increases usable magazine capacity over traditional magnum rounds, making it ideal for mountain hunts, dense-cover stalks, or lightweight backcountry rigs where suppressed operation and compact length matter. Shooters who demand consistent accuracy will appreciate the grooving that reduces fouling and the load recipe tuned to tight specs for repeatable groups, and the one-piece high-strength case outperforms conventional brass-case ammo in durability and extraction under field conditions.
