Federal Ammunition has just announced an all-new product line of rifle ammunition perfect for hunters: Fusion Tipped. It's every bit as effective on game as its siblings in the Fusion line, but with a polymer tip. Federal promises that this new design increases ballistic coefficient, flattens trajectories, and boosts energy for better accuracy and extended effective range. Paired with a skived nose cavity, the polymer tip also helps initiate consistent, lethal expansion. It's available for purchase now in eight of hunting's most popular calibers: 6.5 PRC, 6.5 Creedmoor, .270 Win., 7mm Rem. Mag., 7mm PRC, .308 Win., .30-06 Sprg. and .300 Win. Mag. 

“Following its initial release, Fusion ammunition quickly gained a reputation for its exceptional performance and reliability. Over the past 19 years, we have expanded Fusion into a large list of calibers and bullet weights, now totaling more than 50 product offerings across three different product families,” said Eric Miller, Federal’s Centerfire Product Line Manager. “This has allowed hunters and shooters to experience the benefits of bonded-core technology across a broad spectrum of firearms and game species. New Fusion Tipped is better than ever, and it will be this year’s new deer-camp champ.” MSRPs range from $52.99 to 72.99 depending upon caliber chosen; FederalPremium.com
