Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Federal Premium Safari ammunition designed for?

Federal Premium Safari is engineered specifically for dangerous game hunting—particularly the large, tough game found in Africa. The 470 Nitro Express with a 500 grain Trophy Bonded Bear Claw bullet is built to deliver the deep penetration and controlled performance required for reliable, ethical shot placement on buffalo, lion, and similar dangerous species.

Why does the Trophy Bonded Bear Claw design matter?

The bonded construction mechanically joins the lead core to the copper jacket, preventing jacket separation during the extreme forces of impact and penetration. This keeps the bullet driving straight through heavy bone and tissue rather than fragmenting, which is critical when hunting dangerous game where you need reliable, deep penetration and a predictable wound channel.

How many rounds come in a box?

Federal Premium Safari ammunition is packaged with 20 rounds per box.

Is this ammunition suitable for target practice or long-range shooting?

Federal Premium Safari is purpose-designed for dangerous game hunting. While the ammunition is consistently loaded, the 500 grain soft point bullet is optimized for controlled expansion on game rather than target performance or extended-range precision applications.
