The 7mm Rem Mag has been a go-to magnum for whitetail, elk, and long shots across open country for decades, and Federal's loading with the 145 grain Barnes LRX gives that cartridge a bullet built specifically for hunters who don't want to guess how their bullet will perform once it hits the target. This load leaves the muzzle at a rated 3125 fps with a G1 ballistic coefficient of .449, so it holds velocity and bucks wind better than a lot of traditional cup and core options in this weight class.
The Barnes LRX is a one-piece, all-copper bullet with a polymer tip and a nose cavity that was re-engineered to open up fully whether the shot is close or stretched way out past normal range. That polymer tip boosts the bullet's ballistic coefficient and helps trigger expansion right on contact, and the profile itself was shaped using Doppler radar testing to cut drag and keep the bullet flying true at distance. Since it's machined from solid copper rather than a lead core wrapped in a jacket, the bullet holds onto nearly all of its original weight as it drives through an animal, which means deep penetration and a wound channel that runs the length of the cavity instead of losing steam halfway through.
Federal pairs that Barnes bullet with its own Gold Medal primers and a propellant blend chosen specifically for this load, then holds everything to tight in-house tolerances aimed at consistent accuracy and terminal results shot after shot. That combination of a match grade primer and a purpose built powder charge is what separates a factory hunting round like this from a generic loading, and it shows up as tighter groups and more predictable expansion once you're at the range or in the field.
For 7mm Rem Mag hunters chasing deer, antelope, black bear, or elk, this 145 grain LRX gives you a lighter, faster option that still carries enough weight and structural integrity to punch through at longer ranges without falling apart. It's a solid pick for anyone who wants one load that covers close encounters in thick timber and longer shots across a canyon without switching ammo between hunts.
This load works well on deer, antelope, black bear, and similar sized big game thanks to the LRX bullet's combination of controlled expansion and deep penetration. The higher ballistic coefficient also makes it a solid choice if you're taking shots out past typical range for lighter bullets. It's built to perform whether the shot presents itself up close or well out across open country.
Yes, the LRX is machined from a single piece of solid copper rather than a traditional lead core and jacket. That construction lets it retain nearly all of its weight as it passes through an animal instead of shedding fragments. It's a good option for hunters who prefer an all-copper projectile.
Because it's solid copper, the LRX typically penetrates deeper and holds together better than cup and core bullets, especially on angled or heavy bone shots. The polymer tip and nose cavity are designed to open the bullet into four cutting petals on impact, creating a wide wound channel along its full path. You can generally expect more consistent expansion across a wider range of impact velocities compared to many traditional soft points.
That's really the point of the LRX design in this load. The re-engineered nose cavity is built to expand reliably at close range without blowing up too fast, while the polymer tip and boat tail profile keep the bullet stable and flying flat at extended distances. Federal loads it to perform across that whole range rather than favoring one end of it.
