Default RE: Federal Fusion vs Premium VitalShok in 308?

Nosler partition out of a high velocity round will usually disintegrate or tear off the front core and the remainder will drive thru the animal. The Federal Fusion will expand much morebut stay together and not penetrate as deep as a partition. No one ever said that a bullet that stays together is more effective then a partition. I am assuming you are considering their use on WD.


n a 308 a standard cup and core bullet will more then suffice. All the deer I have killed with a 308 were shot with standard ammo with the exception of a 165 Sierra Game kings and all fell DRT. Used a 30-06 with standard ammo and same scenario.
