Federal Henry 250th Anniversary Rifle Ammunition .45-70 Govt 300gr HP 1850 fps 20/ct
Federal's Henry 250th Anniversary rifle ammunition in .45-70 Govt is a special collaboration load designed to keep Henry's commemorative Golden Boy lever-action rifle fed and ready. This isn't just ammo—it's part of a collectible story, pairing Federal's trusted reloading components with purposeful ballistics for hunters and shooters who appreciate the classic American rifle. With a 300-grain jacketed hollow point pushing 1850 fps, this round handles both serious hunting and deliberate range work from a lever gun built to last generations.
The .45-70 Government round has been the gold standard for big game and medium-range shooting for over 150 years, and Federal's interpretation here respects that heritage while delivering modern reliability. The jacketed soft-point design expands predictably on game, and Federal's quality brass and primers are the foundation of ammunition that shoots straight and reloads consistently—important if you're running a rifle you plan to keep. Whether you're hunting whitetail, elk, or honing your lever-gun skills on the range, this load offers the ballistic performance and build quality you expect from Federal.
The packaging itself is part of the appeal: a collector's-edition box commemorating both America's 250th anniversary and Henry's iconic rifle. For shooters and collectors who value the story behind their gear, this is ammunition that carries weight beyond the ballistics table.
