    Federal fusion?

    This is true . I wonder if its actually expanding like it should be doing the damage internally from the shock and just going through the other side. I loaded some 150 grain Winchester power points last year my wife double long shot a doe at about 100 yd exit wound was only about the size of a...

    Federal fusion?

    Sounds like from what im hearing thay need speed to expand on soft tissue shots ? That may be where the bad reviews are saying small entry and exit hole come from ? Yeah I normally take them out soon as thay blow cause its over with after that lol

    Federal fusion?

    Iv heard thay can be very accurate. But im not expecting anything crazy good as this is a automatic. Some of them not known for great accuracy lol. But that sounds promising

    Federal fusion?

    At first I was going to try the Hornady sst and heard lots of people that didnt like them at all . Mostly from thay caused lot of meat damage . Found these fusion and reviews where better

    Federal fusion?

    Im wanting to put one at the base on neck and see how it acts . My main reason for wanting to try it is its a bonded soft point at a good price point. they claim it opens pretty well the soft tissue but holds together well . Plus its its a pointed spot rather than exposed so an automatic...

    H4895 in semi automatic?

    The good thing is paper and deer aint gonna notice the lower Velocity lol. Iv heard for long time H and imr4895 is great in 308 , 3006 and many others . Especially good for the m1 3006 . So figured it must bee good for the average autoloader
