Federal Ammunition Fusion Tipped ammo

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.

Initial chamberings will include: .300 Blackout (190 grain); 6.5 mm Creedmoor (140 grain); 6.5 mm PRC (140 grain); .270 Win. (150 grain); 7 mm Rem. Mag. (175 grain); 7 mm PRC (175 grain); .308 Win. (180 grain); .30-’06 Sprg. (180 grain); and .300 Win. Mag. (180 grain).
