This isn't just another box of bullets; it's a meticulously engineered solution designed to maximize the potential of your .22 WMR rifle, ensuring clean, humane, and definitive results on your target species.

For hunters who recognize that precision and power are paramount in the field, especially when dealing with often elusive and resilient varmints, the Federal Premium P765 offers a compelling answer. Whether you're targeting cunning coyotes at extended ranges, eradicating pesky prairie dogs with surgical precision, or dispatching groundhogs and other small game, this ammunition is crafted to deliver. It addresses the core challenges hunters face: achieving consistent ignition, maintaining a flat trajectory, and ensuring rapid, explosive expansion upon impact.

The .22 WMR Caliber: A Hunter's Favorite for a Reason

The .22 Winchester Magnum Rimfire, or .22 WMR, stands as a formidable step up from the ubiquitous .22 Long Rifle. It bridges the gap between traditional rimfire cartridges and centerfire rifle rounds, offering significantly increased velocity and energy. This makes it an ideal choice for hunters who need more reach and stopping power than a .22 LR can provide, but don't require the over-penetration or expense of larger centerfire calibers.

Hunters often ask, "Why choose .22 WMR over .22 LR for varmints?" The answer lies in its ballistic superiority. The .22 WMR propels bullets at much higher velocities, resulting in a flatter trajectory and greater effective range. This is crucial for varmint hunting, where shots can often stretch beyond 100 yards. The added energy also translates to more decisive terminal performance, reducing the chance of wounded game and ensuring quick, ethical harvests. The Federal Premium P765 leverages this inherent power, optimizing it for maximum impact.

What types of game are ideal for the .22 WMR? It excels in taking down a variety of small game and predators. Think about animals like:

• Prairie Dogs & Groundhogs: Its flat trajectory and explosive bullet allow for precise hits, minimizing environmental impact.
• Coyotes & Bobcats: While some hunters prefer larger calibers for these animals, the .22 WMR, especially with a high-performance bullet like the Speer TNT, is effective within reasonable ranges, offering a more affordable and less damaging option.
• Foxes: Its accuracy and terminal performance make it suitable for harvesting foxes without excessive pelt damage if that's a consideration.
• Rabbits & Squirrels: For those seeking a higher-powered rimfire for these animals, it provides definitive results.

The Federal Premium P765 is specifically engineered to harness the full potential of the .22 WMR, making it a go-to choice for these applications.

Unpacking the Speer TNT Hollow Point: Precision & Pyrotechnics

At the heart of the Federal Premium P765's exceptional performance lies the 30 grain Speer TNT Hollow Point bullet. This is not just any hollow point; it's a specialized design crafted for rapid, violent expansion and maximum energy transfer within the target. The "TNT" moniker isn't just marketing; it speaks to the bullet's explosive impact characteristics.

What makes the Speer TNT Hollow Point so effective for varmints?

1. Engineered Cavity: The large, precision-formed hollow point cavity is designed to initiate rapid expansion immediately upon impact, even on smaller, softer targets.
2. Thin Jacket Construction: Unlike bullets designed for deep penetration, the Speer TNT features a thin jacket that peels back quickly, facilitating explosive fragmentation. This maximizes tissue damage and energy dump within the animal, leading to quick, humane kills.
3. Lightweight & Fast: The 30-grain bullet weight contributes to the impressive muzzle velocity of 2200 feet per second (fps). This high speed results in a flatter trajectory, simplifying shot placement at varying distances, and generates significant hydrostatic shock.

When hunters ask, "What's the best bullet for explosive performance on varmints?", the Speer TNT Hollow Point is consistently ranked among the top contenders. Its design ensures that virtually all of the bullet's energy is expended within the target, delivering devastating results without excessive pass-through. This is critical for both humane dispatch and reducing the risk of ricochets in open fields.

Federal Premium: A Legacy of Quality and Innovation

The consistent, reliable performance of the P765 is a direct reflection of Federal Premium's unwavering commitment to quality. For decades, Federal Ammunition has been a trusted name among hunters and shooters, renowned for its meticulous manufacturing processes and stringent quality control.

How does Federal Premium ensure such high standards?

When you choose Federal Premium, you're investing in a product backed by decades of expertise and a reputation for producing ammunition that simply performs. It's why so many experienced hunters say, "I trust Federal Premium."

Understanding the Ballistics: Velocity, Energy, and Impact

The Federal Premium P765 boasts impressive ballistic figures that directly translate to its effectiveness in the field:

• Muzzle Velocity: 2200 feet per second (fps)
• Muzzle Energy: 322 foot-pounds (ft-lbs)

What do these numbers mean for you as a hunter?

• High Muzzle Velocity (2200 fps): A high muzzle velocity means the bullet travels faster, which has several significant advantages.
  • Flatter Trajectory: The faster the bullet, the less time gravity has to pull it down over distance, resulting in a flatter trajectory. This simplifies holdover calculations and makes hitting targets at varying ranges much easier. For varmint hunting, where targets might be anywhere from 50 to 150 yards, a flat trajectory is a huge asset.
  • Reduced Wind Drift: While still susceptible to wind, a faster bullet spends less time in the air, meaning it's less affected by crosswinds.
  • Enhanced Hydrostatic Shock: High velocity contributes significantly to hydrostatic shock upon impact, which rapidly incapacitates the animal.
• Substantial Muzzle Energy (322 ft-lbs): Muzzle energy is a measure of the bullet's kinetic energy at the moment it leaves the barrel.
  • Stopping Power: Higher energy directly correlates with increased stopping power. For varmints and small predators, 322 ft-lbs is more than sufficient to deliver a decisive, humane kill, especially when combined with the explosive expansion of the Speer TNT bullet.
  • Energy Transfer: The goal is to transfer as much of this energy as possible into the target. The Speer TNT's design ensures maximum energy dump, preventing over-penetration and maximizing internal damage.

These figures underscore why the P765 is not just accurate but also remarkably effective in achieving the desired outcome: a clean, ethical take-down.

Packaging and Practical Considerations

The Federal Premium P765 is conveniently packaged to suit both casual and serious hunters:

• 50 Rounds Per Box: This is a standard and practical quantity for a hunting trip, offering enough ammunition for multiple outings or extended periods at the range.
• 60 Boxes Per Case: For high-volume shooters, pest control professionals, or those who simply like to stock up, the option to purchase by the case (totaling 3000 rounds) offers significant value and ensures you always have premium ammunition on hand.

When considering bulk purchases, hunters often ask, "Is it worth buying .22 WMR in bulk?" For the Federal Premium P765, the answer is a resounding yes. Bulk purchasing ensures:

• Cost Efficiency: Often, buying by the case reduces the per-box or per-round cost.
• Consistency: Having a large supply from the same lot number minimizes any minor variations, ensuring consistent performance for an extended period.
• Preparedness: You're always ready for hunting season or unexpected pest issues.

The brass casing material used in Federal Premium ammunition is a testament to its quality. Brass provides superior structural integrity, reliable feeding and extraction from your firearm's chamber, and excellent resistance to corrosion, ensuring the ammunition remains viable even after prolonged storage.
