The ammunition is housed in two original 20-round factory cardboard boxes featuring the blue, black, and white Power-Shok graphic design with a deer illustration. Each box contains a clear plastic tray holding 20 cartridges. The cartridges are constructed with brass cases and 150 grain jacketed soft point (SP) bullets, a projectile designed for maximum effectiveness on medium game such as antelope, mule deer, white-tail deer, and black bear. Visible headstamps are marked F C 300 SAV, identifying the manufacturer as Federal Cartridge and the caliber as .300 Savage. The rear of the packaging includes a detailed ballistics table for the 300A load, specifying a muzzle velocity of 2,630 fps and muzzle energy of 2,305 ft-lbs. Box end flaps are clearly marked with the manufacturer logo, load number 300A, and the caliber and bullet weight specifications.
