Grateful Nation™
Freedom is coveted most by those who know its price. Join actor and former Army Ranger Tim Abell as he introduces viewers to some of America’s finest—soldiers who have been wounded in combat but whose love of hunting has helped them overcome the physical and emotional scars of war. Along the way, you will come to know the sacrifice of these soldiers as they share their experiences in distant lands while at the same time returning to a favorite hunting setting—the kind of place that sustained them from foxholes to hospital wards. These are American stories that you will never forget— especially when you witness the outpouring of support from a truly grateful nation.

Dangerous Game™ Federal Premium ® is proud to sponsor this VERSUS series featuring the most exciting dangerous game footage available. Dangerous Game highlights the drama and personalities of the hunters who dedicate their lives to the pursuit of some of the most fearsome animals on the planet. Not only does the series focus on heart-pounding hunts, but it also showcases the key role hunters play in conserving the species and the environments where the animals live.

Differentiating with Innovation At Federal Premium®, we bring you new products that outperform the rest. Our innovations aren’t small changes to existing products, or gimmicks we can put our name on. They’re loads and calibers that give you a clear advantage. That’s because outside of the workplace, we’re hunters and shooters just like you. Staying on the leading edge of ammunition technology takes the skill and knowledge to create products that perform at the highest level—and above all make sense. Our 2009 lineup does just that.
Trophy Bonded® Tip. Last year we introduced this new bullet that combined several technologies to emerge as the clear-cut winner for big game hunters. Improved ballistic coefficients led to better accuracy, exterior skiving meant perfect expansion every time and a proven platform still gave you great weight retention. This year, we expand this line to fill in the loads you need. See page 10 for details.
V-Shok® Coyote Shotshell. For the first time, we introduce a 12 gauge shotgun load made especially for coyotes. This offering combines the ultra-dense HEAVYWEIGHT® shot and FLITECONTROL® wad for unbelievable performance. Effective shotgunning range for varmints just got longer. This year, put it to the ultimate test in the field. See page 36 for details.
Personal Defense® .410 Handgun Shotshells. The Judge from Taurus® has become a very popular handgun for personal defense. Because most personal protection scenarios usually play out in close proximity, a shotshell load makes perfect sense. New this year, we introduce two offerings designed for this specialized platform. Our .410 000 buck and #4 lead shot options give you great patterns and excellent penetration. See page 27 for details.
We’ve also honed in on some key needs of shooters with affordable American Eagle® target loads for M1A and M1 Garand shooters (page 16). The return of UltraMatch® 22 LR load (page 52) and several line extensions, including a new Barnes® Tipped Triple-Shock® X-Bullet™ offering (page 11), are just a few of the new products we offer in 2009.

Flitecontrol Wad ®
the difference maker One thing is for certain; industry-changing innovations like the FLITECONTROL® wad don’t come along everyday. The impact this has had on shotshell technology as a whole is unprecedented. Before its introduction, hunters had never seen such devastatingly consistent patterns. The performance alone spoke for itself. And the best part is you don’t need some crazy choke, or far-fetched product to get great results. All you need is standard factory chokes and your favorite scattergun. The FLITECONTROL wad revolutionized everything from buckshot to waterfowl loads. This year, 10 and 20 gauge turkey, duck and goose hunters get in the mix. With several new loads available in both the Black Cloud ® and Mag-ShokTM lines, Toms and teal alike should take note. Coyotes aren’t safe either, as this technology has been incorporated to create an all-new shotgun load for varmints that gives unprecedented performance in the field. 1.

Premium Vital•Shok ®
®
There’s No Excuse for Second Best The Federal Premium® Vital-Shok™ line has proven itself to big game hunters of all types in all conditions. We take pride in having many Premium® options ready for you to chamber no matter where your hunt might take you. We’re definitely proud of the reputation we’ve established but that doesn’t mean the innovation will cease. We’re constantly looking for ways to improve our products and/or extend our lines. This year is a perfect example. We’ve loaded Barnes Triple-Shock X-bullet for years, but you’ll notice a few new calibers are now available in this all-copper offering. Included in these extensions is even a 30-30 option. Sure there has been a lot of cartridge development and caliber introductions over the years, but the 30-30 remains one of the most popular calibers and deserves the best bullets available. Our constant dedication to improving our line results in viable new products because regardless of caliber, there is no substitute for Premium performance.
A S h i n i n g Sta r f o r C o n s e r vat i o n Like many great ideas and organizations, the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation (RMEF) had some very humble beginnings. The thriving organization was started by four hunters after a weekend of hunting. They started working out of the back of a trailer, and by the end of the first year they had recruited almost 2,500 members. After 25 years, they are now responsible for conserving over 5.4 million acres for the continent’s million animal elk herd. Because of their continued dedication and success, Federal Premium® is proud to support them with an on-box royalty program. Join one of the 550 chapters and 155,000 members as they strive to carry out the mission statement of this great steward of conservation: Ensure the future of elk, other wildlife and their habitat. www.rmef.org.

Premium CAPE•Shok ®
®
There is No Second Chance in Once in a Lifetime Anytime you have one of these large caliber rifles in your hands, the stakes are high. One shot is all you get. Not taking full advantage of that opportunity might mean missing out on a trophy, or worse. We load our Cape-Shok™ ammunition for situations just like this. The best components come together to form the finest factory loaded ammunition on the planet. We might build it here in the states, but there’s no limit to where it can take you. The .370 Sako Magnum we introduced last year has proven itself in the world of large and dangerous game hunting. Some of the most experienced hunters in the world took it abroad and have sung the highest praises. The full line of soft points and solids up to 470 Nitro Express is also available. New for this year we’ve added the proven Barnes® Triple-Shock® X-Bullet™ to 458 Lott, and developed a Barnes Banded Solid for the 370 Sako Magnum.

Premium Gold Medal ®
®
Setting the Standard High Our Gold Medal ® centerfire offerings stand alone not only in our line, but among the competition. The majority of our Premium® loads are dedicated to hunters and their quest for game in the field. Gold Medal has a completely different objective, and the name says it all. We manufacture these loads for the highest level of competition. We know there’s no substitute for the feeling you get as you look down range and level those sights. As you control your breathing and gently break the trigger, we want all your practice to result in perfection. That’s why Gold Medal loads are held to such stringent standards. Nothing is overlooked. The legendary Sierra® MatchKing® Boat-Tail bullet and our proprietary delivery system raise the bar for factory ammunition. It’s the most accurate load available, and just the advantage you’re looking for.
Affordable Excellence The M1A and M1 Garand are storied rifles that remain very popular and have a huge following. You know that it is important to feed these rifles the right ammunition. A lot of the hunting ammunition today isn’t suitable for these special rifles. This year Federal® introduces two affordable, reliable American Eagle® options. These special loads feature staked primers to reduce the risk of firearm malfunction including slamfires. The M1 Garand load features a 150 grain FMJ bullet and a carefully selected propellant producing pressures that match the gas system design. The M1A load features a 168 grain Open Tip Match (OTM) bullet which gives you match-grade accuracy. See page 24 for ballistic information.

Usage Key: 1 = Varmints, predators, small game 2 = Medium game 3 = Large, heavy game 4 = Dangerous game 5 = Target shooting, training, practice 6 = Self defense These trajectory tables were calculated by computer using the best available data for each load. Trajectories are representative of the nominal behavior of each load at standard conditions (59°F temperature; barometric pressure of 29.53 inches; altitude at sea level). Shooters are cautioned that actual trajectories may differ due to variations in altitude, atmospheric conditions, guns, sights and ammunition.

Usage Key: 1 = Varmints, predators, small game 2 = Medium game 3 = Large, heavy game 4 = Dangerous game 5 = Target shooting, training, practice 6 = Self defense These trajectory tables were calculated by computer using the best available data for each load. Trajectories are representative of the nominal behavior of each load at standard conditions (59°F temperature; barometric pressure of 29.53 inches; altitude at sea level). Shooters are cautioned that actual trajectories may differ due to variations in altitude, atmospheric conditions, guns, sights and ammunition.

Usage Key: 1 = Varmints, predators, small game 2 = Medium game 3 = Large, heavy game 4 = Dangerous game 5 = Target shooting, training, practice 6 = Self defense These trajectory tables were calculated by computer using the best available data for each load. Trajectories are representative of the nominal behavior of each load at standard conditions (59°F temperature; barometric pressure of 29.53 inches; altitude at sea level). Shooters are cautioned that actual trajectories may differ due to variations in altitude, atmospheric conditions, guns, sights and ammunition.

Usage Key: 1 = Varmints, predators, small game 2 = Medium game 3 = Large, heavy game 4 = Dangerous game 5 = Target shooting, training, practice 6 = Self defense These trajectory tables were calculated by computer using the best available data for each load. Trajectories are representative of the nominal behavior of each load at standard conditions (59째F temperature; barometric pressure of 29.53 inches; altitude at sea level). Shooters are cautioned that actual trajectories may differ due to variations in altitude, atmospheric conditions, guns, sights and ammunition.

Unfaltering Performance Personal defense situations aren’t planned. They come on without warning and are decided in a matter of seconds. You need ammunition that will perform every time. This year we introduce .410 shotshells designed especially for the Judge that make perfect sense for personal defense. In addition, momentum for the .327 Federal Magnum we introduced last year remains strong. Built on the .32 platform, it gives shooters .357 Magnum like ballistics without the recoil. Also due to popular demand, NyClad® is back. This proven bullet provides reliable accuracy and increased stopping power. Target and gelatin shot with PD412JGE 000 load, .410 gauge 21/2" 000 Buck, 4 pellets in the Taurus Judge at 5 yards.

H a n d g u n S h o t s h e l l s f o r Pe r s o n a l D e f e n s e The distances at which most personal defense scenarios are played out are extremely close. Therefore, shotshell loads for handguns make real sense. Our new .410 2-1/2” loads were developed especially for the Judge from Taurus. They pattern well and give you excellent penetration. Available in both 000 buck and a #4 option.

Short-barreled Firearms for Big Game Taking down big game is never an easy task, especially when you elect to take your handgun out there to do the trick. Sure, you’ve got a great trail with outstanding signs of an active trophy; you may have even caught the monster on tape with your new trail camera. It doesn’t matter. If you don’t make the shot, you’re going home empty-handed. And no shot is tougher than with a short-barreled firearm like a magnum revolver. Less length means more room for error. But you’ve been practicing. You’re up for the challenge. Select the right load and make sure you’re confident in where it will hit—shot after shot. Federal Premium® offers the all copper Barnes® Expander® for superior expansion, maximum energy transfer on target and ideal performance on deer. Another option is always the proven CastCore®. This hard-cast bullet retains all its weight and shape to give you the bone-crushing performance you need when taking down medium to large game.
W E AR E TH E NRA . One of the great freedoms we enjoy in America is the right to bear arms. Without it we would most certainly lose our close ties to the outdoors and the thrill we feel when entering our favorite blind or walking our honey-hole trail. The Second Amendment is constantly coming under attack and we need to take action to keep it alive and well. Federal Premium® has a long history of strong support for the NRA and its dedicated membership. The NRA’s most recent push urges gun owners to “Insure Your Gun Rights”, and we couldn’t agree more. There’s never been a better time to join. Federal supports those groups that keep our sport strong. Join the NRA today at www.nra.org.

Preserving the Legacy The sound of ducks riding a stiff breeze on a cool crisp morning never gets old. It’s the reason we dream about ducks all year. And a reminder to study our species and break out the call in the off-season. And of course it’s the reason we listened so intently the first time grandpa described it to us. Now that we know, it’s our job to carry it on. When you head out to the blind, make sure you’ve got the heaviest, fastest steel loads you can get. Our Premium® Heavy High Velocity and High Velocity Ultra-Shok™ loads scream out of the barrel and set the bar for standard steel loads.

Kee p t h e D r e a m A l i v e There’s no greater thrill than calling in a group of ducks or geese in that early morning light. Waterfowling is a favorite pastime, and we need to keep it that way. Ducks Unlimited has been working hard to ensure we do. One of their recent successes has been the Grasslands for Tomorrow initiative. Projects like this have helped DU conserve over 12 million acres of vital habitat in their 70-year existence. With Federal Premium, every box of Ultra-Shok™ ammunition you buy gives money directly to DU. Learn more ways to help the fight at www.ducks.org.

Premium Ultra•Shok waterfowl high density and Heavyweight ®

Pure Performance. No Questions When you take to the blind, you want the best ammunition money can buy. Lucky for you, the only choice is what non-tox product you prefer. Our Ultra-Shok™ line carries both High Density® and HEAVYWEIGHT® options. High Density represents the perfect combination of density, hardness and velocity. The speeds are equivalent to steel, and the downrange energy is high to make these loads ideal for waterfowl. The consistent shot also sports a band around the edge that increases surface area for improved lethality. When you want the densest shot commercially loaded, go right for the HEAVYWEIGHT®. At 15 g/cc on the density scale, these pellets are twice as dense as steel. You get the energy of a steel #3 in HEAVYWEIGHT #6, but with 55 more pellets. Have we said enough?
D e n s i t y D e f i n ed . We’re all playing the density game—trying to outdo the other with a higher number. So what exactly are we measuring when defining shot density? The official measurement is grams per cubic centimeter or g/cc for short. Simply put, it measures how dense the metal is based on its size and sectional density. So, it is true that higher is better in the density game. So here’s a guide for how to compare—that happens to bode well for Federal Premium.® Shot type densities: Steel: 7 g/cc • Tungsten-Iron (High Density®): 10 g/cc • Tungsten-based HEAVYWEIGHT: 15 g/cc
