Default RE: Federal Fusion..NOT impressed

slo-bo------------I use an 30/06 for my elk hunting. I've used plain jane bullets for years without a problem---"core-lokts", "power-points" & now "Hornady's interlock" spire points-----all are 180 grains. This year I had a buddy come out & hunt with me. He borrowed an 06 from me & I had it sited in with 180 Nolser Partitions. He took a bull---IMO there was no difference between them. IMO at 30/06 speed plain jane bullets are fine.

I'm surprised that a bonded bullet came apart. He was using 180 grain factory ammo, correct?

I guess the good thing is the elk still fell. CB
