New Federal Fusion TIPPED…. Thoughts

[alexnelon]

Anybody heard anything about these recently?

Announced 4 months ago and still not even on the website.

Are these ever coming?

Sure would! I love some 62g fusions.

I like the current 62gr Fusion and the MSR version, they have worked well on coyotes and pigs, haven't shot a deer yet with either version.

HaHaHa
A few years ago Federal announced a new bullet. Don't remember the name- bullet was shiny black with a blue tip. A buddy I was doing load dev. for a sheep hunt, asked me to get some to try.
I called Federal, and talked to the marketing director. I asked him when they would be avail. He said " oh the production mgr. is sitting right here, i'll ask him" I could hear him say " they are being packed this week, will be in all outlets by the end of the month"
It was 2 years before they were available to buy.

The actual people that should know don't have a clue. Asking on a forum is not going to get any accurate info.

Well it does like they’re being sold in factory ammo now. To me it’s probably a Speer impact with different color tip. This have been shooting well in my creedmoors and taken some game already. Pleased with performance.

Got any pics to share? Would like to see some terminal performance data!

Anyone tried the Speer Impact Bullets yet?

Just saw Speer had the Impact bullets out for 30 Cal and .264. Looks like the Gold Dot bullet with a polymer tip and higher BC. Just wondering if anyone has tried them out yet. I have had good success with the Gold Dots in the past, so these make me curious.

No I couldn’t find any as they all exited. I attached link above though for my experience.

SPEER Impact 6.5mm (.264") 140gr Bullet Test

I wanted to test the expansion of the new Impact Bonded 140gr 6.5mm offering from SPEER. After conducting load development a few weeks back, I set up some water jugs at my range. I know water jugs aren't the best testing media, but its what I had at my disposal. The water jugs were placed at...
