Federal .450 Bushmaster ammunition (part no. F450BMFS1) loads a 260-grain Fusion Soft Point for hunters heading out after deer-class game and similarly sized animals. Federal has been a top American ammunition maker for decades, and this loading reflects the same attention to consistency found across its premium lines. An electrochemical bonding process fuses the jacket to the core, so the bullet expands consistently instead of shedding its jacket at magnum velocities. Brass-cased and 20 to a box, it is built to feed reliably through bolt guns and semi-autos chambered for the cartridge. In our rifle ammunition lineup, this .450 Bushmaster loading is a confirmed, dependable choice worth adding to the cart.
