Federal Fusion .30-06 Springfield 180gr Bonded Soft Point

Description

The Federal Fusion .30-06 Springfield is engineered to do what the rifle does best: deliver knockdown power on medium and large game with efficiency and reliability. Built from the ground up for hunters, this round pairs proven velocity with a bullet design that won't let you down when it matters.

What Makes Federal Fusion.30-06 Different

The bullet starts with a pressure-formed lead core that's electrochemically bonded to the copper jacket at the molecular level. This isn't just a standard soft point. The jacket and core become one unified piece, which means the bullet stays together through thick hide and bone, delivering the kind of penetration that ethical hunters demand. You get weight retention around 85-90 percent on impact, which translates to more energy transfer where it counts.

Expansion You Can Count On

Federal skived the nose of this round to guide controlled expansion even at longer ranges where velocity drops. That same skiving keeps the bullet from fragmenting at close range when impact velocity is high. It expands reliably across a wide range of hunting scenarios, from brush hunting to open terrain shots, delivering that classic mushroom shape hunters expect from a quality hunting load.

A Sensible Choice for Your .30-06

At 180 grains, this loading sits in the sweet spot for larger game like elk and black bear. It shoots at 2,700 feet per second with 2,915 foot-pounds of muzzle energy, delivering flat enough trajectories for practical hunting ranges while packing the penetration heavier game demands. The boat-tail design polishes ballistics for better long-range performance. Federal loaded these rounds in quality brass that feeds reliably and can be reloaded for future use.
