[QUOTE="MNbogboy, post: 1992259, member: 18849"] Bought some federal fusion bullets on sale last winter to try in some of my 6.5 caliber rifles. Liked the first 200 and then found they are actually Speer Gold Dot. Price is right, they shot good in 4 different cartridges including 6.5-06, 6.5 creed, 260 super and 6.5/257 Bob Ackley 40°. This is the first & only 1 shot at game (so far). 140 Speer Gold Dot (federal fusion) out of a 6.5/257 Bob Ackley on top of H4831sc. Last Friday Wyoming antelope buck 245 yards. Residual weight still 128 grains. Early summer this rifle grouped 1.75" at 300 yards and still 5.50" at 610 yards. Drop test showed advertised BC (.571 g1) a little optimistic. Ballistic program fit .520 as actual. I like the results so far. [ATTACH type="full"]217363[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
