Federal Gold Model 260 Remington 142-grain ammunition is purpose-built for precision rifle applications where consistent ballistics and match-grade performance define success. Loaded with Sierra MatchKing bullets—the most-used projectile in competitive rifle shooting—this cartridge delivers the accuracy standards demanded by long-range competitors, designated marksmen, and serious precision rifle enthusiasts.
The 260 Remington cartridge generates a muzzle velocity of 2,750 feet per second with the 142-grain projectile, producing a flat trajectory suitable for intermediate to extended range work. Federal's exclusive primer design minimizes variation in ignition characteristics, which is critical for shot-to-shot consistency at distance. The 142-grain Sierra MatchKing is a boattail hollow-point designed specifically for accuracy in target and competition environments, with a profile optimized for typical 260 Remington twist rates.
This ammunition serves precision rifle competitors, designated marksmen courses, and hunters pursuing medium game at extended ranges where the 260 Remington's ballistic efficiency and low recoil provide advantages for follow-up shots and extended shooting sessions. The 260 Remington's intermediate power level and inherent accuracy make it competitive for 800-yard and 1,000-yard match disciplines where ammunition consistency directly impacts scoring.
Federal Premium's Gold Medal line represents the upper tier of factory ammunition production, combining strict quality control, proven component pairing, and established performance data that allows shooters to focus on marksmanship rather than ammunition variables. Each box contains 20 rounds.
