Set against the pristine landscape surrounding Farnie Lake, the hunt was filmed and featured in Federal’s latest video release: 7mm Backcountry Manitoba Hunt of a Lifetime. The footage follows Federal’s expert hunters from camp to the kill, demonstrating how the new 7mm Backcountry load performs in extreme wilderness conditions.

“We’ve always known Munroe Lake Lodge is one of the top caribou destinations in North America,” said the Federal team. “This trip proved it once again. The terrain was tough, the animals were strong, and the new 7mm Backcountry ammo delivered exactly what hunters demand—precision, power, and reliability.”

Both Federal team members successfully harvested mature bull caribou after strategic stalks and ethical shots, captured in crystal-clear video. With wide antlers, impressive mass, and long tops, these bulls reflect the kind of trophy-class animals Munroe Lake Lodge has become known for.

The lodge, accessible only by floatplane, offers a unique fair-chase experience deep in Manitoba’s barren-ground caribou range. With limited tags, personal guides, and remote camps, Munroe Lake Lodge provides serious hunters the chance to harvest bulls in near-pristine conditions with little hunting pressure.
