About Federal

Federal makes everything from cheap range ammo to match and defense loads, and AR shooters mostly know American Eagle bulk 5.56 and Gold Medal Match.

Founded 1922, Anoka, Minnesota, Made in USA · Ammo maker · Match ammo · Bulk 5.56

Why Federal

Federal has loaded ammo in Anoka, Minnesota since 1922. It changed hands a few times and was bought by the Czechoslovak Group in 2024.

American Eagle is the budget range line, the bulk 5.56 you train with. Gold Medal Match is the other end: loaded to Federal's tightest accuracy, pressure and velocity specs, with match primers and brass, and cases checked after every forming step.

In between sit HST for defense and Fusion and Vital-Shok for hunting. That spread means one brand can cover practice, match and carry.

Gold Medal costs real money, and match ammo won't fix a loose barrel. We'd shoot American Eagle for practice and keep a few boxes of Gold Medal Match for checking groups.

  • Gold Medal Match is held to Federal's tightest accuracy, pressure and velocity specs, with Gold Medal primers and brass.
  • Cases get checked after each forming step, sometimes over 20 inspections before loading, and match cases are sorted tighter.
