Performance-minded hunters know the difference a purpose-built bullet makes when the shot counts. Precision on the range must translate to predictable terminal performance in the field; ammunition designed for controlled expansion and weight retention reduces tracking time and improves ethical harvests.

FEDERAL FUSION was the first rifle ammunition specifically built for deer hunting and remains a benchmark for energy transfer on target. Its molecularity fused jacket and pressureformed core are engineered to produce the largest expansion and highest weight retention in head-to-head comparisons, which means more of the bullet’s mass stays with the projectile to deliver maximum energy where it matters most.

Design that prioritizes terminal effectiveness

The Fusion design pairs a molecularly fused jacket with a pressure-formed core to control expansion while minimizing fragmentation. That combination produces consistent mushrooming and exceptional weight retention—translating to deep, straight wound channels and reliable energy transfer. For deer hunters who want clean ethical kills at common field ranges, those traits are critical.

Field considerations and selection tips

Match the Fusion load to your cartridge and hunting profile. Because the design emphasizes controlled expansion and high weight retention, it performs well in typical deer-hunting ranges and offers predictable penetration in varied tissue and bone encounters. For specifics on velocity and ballistic coefficient, consult the product page and your rifle’s zeroing process before the season.
