This review introduces Federal's new 7mm Backcountry cartridge, a steel-cased round designed for high performance comparable to magnum cartridges but fitting standard-length rifle actions. The steel case allows for higher pressures (around 80,000 PSI) compared to traditional brass cases (mid-60,000s PSI), with the case itself acting as a containment vessel. This design enables the use of shorter barrels and suppressors while maintaining significant ballistic capability, making it advantageous for modern hunting scenarios.
