Federal Premium HammerDown Ammunition 444 Marlin 270 Grain Bonded Jacketed Hollow Point 20RD

Federal Premium HammerDown ammunition in 444 Marlin delivers a proven hunting round built on decades of Federal's centerfire rifle ammunition expertise. The 270-grain bonded jacketed hollow point is engineered for hunters who demand reliable performance on medium to large game. This is serious ammo for hunters running lever-action or single-shot 444 Marlin rifles who need consistent accuracy and terminal performance without compromise.

The bonded construction keeps bullet and jacket together through impact, maximizing energy transfer and creating predictable expansion. That matters when you're hunting in thick cover or at distance where every shot counts. Federal loads these cartridges to consistent specifications, so you get the same velocity and point-of-aim shot to shot—critical when you're dialing in a hunting rifle or working a specific distance.

HammerDown is Federal's line purpose-built for lever guns and traditional hunting scenarios. At 270 grains, this load sits in the middle of the 444 Marlin's effective range, balancing energy retention with shooter control. Each box contains 20 rounds, enough for serious practice, load testing, or a well-supplied season in the field.
