OJR Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 Re: FYI Federal Fusion bullets I have never used them, but have seen a few people with them at the range and they were not getting very good accuracy out of them! You must have gotten good accuracy for that kind of a shot! How about some more details?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elkhntnfool Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 Re: FYI Federal Fusion bullets I've used them. Never got supreme accuracy with them but did put afew deer on the ground with them. I don't think there built for range accuracy just to be used for killin deer.

tped Posted October 23, 2006 Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 Re: FYI Federal Fusion bullets I was curious how they performed on game. So far I've shot the fusions in 3 different guns - 270WSM - 150 grain - 140 grain - 7-08 and 150 grain 7mag and all 3 shot sub moa at 100 yards. I 've been impressed with the accuracy.

Tim Andrus Posted October 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 Re: FYI Federal Fusion bullets tped, I was happy with it on the mule deer I shot last week. It was 269 yrds , broke his left shoulder ,as well as taking out the heart. He was quartering to my left so I aimed at he shoulder figuring on it angling through the vitals . Worked like a charm . He tokk 2 seteps and went down, I mean down .. slid down 70 yrds down a butte into a area that I wished I had a helicopter lol ! tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
