Federal Ammunition Releases New Fusion Tipped Rifle Loads

By Daniel Y

Federal Ammunition’s Fusion lineup needs little introduction. It has a reputation as an effective load on game animals, with a soft point bullet and a copper jacket “electro-chemically” bonded to the lead core. The newest iteration in the family is a range of Fusion Tipped ammunition, which adds a polymer tip for a better ballistic coefficient. Federal also claims that the polymer tip does not change the expansion and weight retention characteristics of the parent bullet design.Federal Ammo @ TFB: Army Awards Federal Ammunition $114M Frangible Ammunition Contract New HammerDown 444 Marlin Load from Federal Ammunition Available Federal Ammunition Unveils NEW Power-Shok 360 Buckhammer Offerings New 10mm Train + Protect From Federal Ammunition Mk316 Mod US Navy Contract for 7.62x51mm Ammo Awarded to Federal
