Tried various brands of ammo over the years but settled on 130 grain Federal Premium Sierra Game Kings with the boat tail bullet. I think you will be happy with any of the bullets previously mentioned.

Good try though Yep! I guess I need to slow down on the skim reading. The important part for me was "Fusion" rather than 140 grain.

I have been using Federal Premium 130gr SGK BTSP for 25 years and have never lost a deer to this load. I have had at least half drop in their tracks and I can only recall one deer that ran more than 75 yards. As mentioned the most important step is to find what ammo your rifle shoots well. I purchased 3 boxes of Remington's Premier Swift Scirocco for a 308 a few years ago as I wanted a polymer tipped load but after spending over $80 I found with only 10 rounds that the rifle did not shoot them well. I have heard good things about Remington CoreLokt from a lot of folks who have been shooting much longer than myself and plan on trying these out for a new 308 range/field rifle. The price point is perfect for a good performing load.�

I haven't owned one in 10 years and so many bullet types have came out since then. I shot power points in mine when I was 16 but have no idea about any of the fusions or any of the newer stuff

I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted..... proud Cracker-Americaan muslims are like coyotes, only good one is a dead one
