In this episode of GEARED FOR THE HUNT, Will and Josh sit down with Eric Miller, Product Manager for Federal Ammunition, to break down one of the most exciting new rifle cartridges to hit the hunting world — the 7mm Backcountry.

Eric pulls back the curtain on the innovation, engineering, and real-world testing that went into building a cartridge designed specifically for modern backcountry hunters. From long-range performance and terminal ballistics to recoil balance, bullet design, and field application, we get into why this round isn’t just another chambering — it’s a purpose-built tool for hunters who demand precision without compromise.

Whether you're a Western big-game addict, a whitetail nut looking for a new edge, or someone who just loves geeking out on cutting-edge ballistics, this episode is packed with insights straight from the source.

Tune in and get the full story behind Federal's next breakthrough.
