Keeping Traditions Alive Since 1953

Federal Fusion ammunition was engineered from the ground up for deer hunting, and it shows. The 95 grain soft point loads at 2980 fps, giving you the velocity needed in the .243 to take full advantage of bonded bullet technology that actually works.
The core of Fusion's design is the electrochemically bonded jacket and pressure-formed lead core. Unlike traditional cup-and-core bullets that can separate on impact, the Fusion jacket and core become essentially one material through an electroplating process. This means the bullet holds together through expansion instead of falling apart, which translates to deeper penetration and more reliable terminal performance. In testing, these bullets retain around 85-90 percent of their original weight, which is outstanding.
The skived nose cavity on the Fusion bullet is where the magic happens. That pre-programmed star-shaped fissure guides consistent expansion, typically reaching twice the original bullet diameter. Combined with the bonded construction, you get a mushroomed bullet that doesn't shed jacket fragments, keeping the wound channel consistent from entry to exit. This design works equally well on close shots and extends to reasonable hunting ranges.
Every round comes in reloadable brass with non-corrosive primers, so you can run them through your rifle for seasons to come. The boattail profile improves flight characteristics and accuracy without excessive complexity. This is straightforward, purpose-built deer ammunition that doesn't try to be everything to everyone.
Yes. Fusion was designed specifically for deer hunting and delivers exceptional expansion combined with outstanding weight retention. The bonded bullet construction prevents jacket-core separation, giving you reliable terminal performance across typical hunting ranges. Field reports consistently show deep penetration with clean expansion.
At 2980 fps, the 95 grain loading is right in the sweet spot for the .243 Winchester and medium game like deer. The bonded construction and skived nose design work together to deliver consistent, controlled expansion while maintaining deep penetration. This weight is commonly used by hunters for both whitetail and mule deer.
Yes. Fusion ammunition comes in reloadable brass cases with Boxer primers, so you can reload them after firing. This makes it a practical choice for hunters who handload and want to extend the value of their ammunition investment.
Fusion uses an electrochemical bonding process that molecularly fuses the jacket to the lead core at a metallic level, rather than mechanical retention alone. This creates a stronger, more permanent bond that resists separation even on close-range or oblique hits. The result is better weight retention and deeper penetration compared to mechanically retained designs.
