Default Anyone use Fusion 209 primers or bullets?

I know I like how the Federal Fusions shoot in my 30-06. Well, I saw they have primers for muzzle loaders too. Are their 209 primers any good? I don't want to pay $22 hazmat fee or whatever it is for ordering from Natchezss.com but I find them locally I wouldn't mind trying them. Anyone used them? I'm currently using Winchester 209 primers and they seem to work fine. I've shot maybe 15-20 of them in my Genesis.


Also what about the bullets? I'm tempted to try these as I've been starting to really like Federal stuff. When it comes to regular guns I like Federal or Winchester when it comes to ammo.

Right now I'm using Powerbelt Hollow Points in 295 grain. Should I try the Fusions in 300 grain? Anyone used this? They don't make a 295 and the 300 is the closest.

They're probably just the same thing as a regular Federal 209 primer but with a different box. And they're probably more expensive because they have the cool name.

I use federal 209 primers .They work great. but I have never seen the Federal Fusion. Maybe they are similar to t777 or Remington Kleen-bores. If so, I would stick with the regular federals. i get great groups with them in most of my guns
