Building on the success of its original bonded soft-point bullets in the Fusion line, Fusion Tipped features the same great terminal performance with a new tipped design.

The increased ogive of this latest offering provides a boost in ballistic performance with benefits including improved flight stability, flatter trajectories and increased terminal performance at distance. A skived nose cavity, in conjunction with the polymer tip, contributes to consistent expansion.
