I've had good accuracy from any Hornady Fusion load I tried in several calibre. And damn good performance on game.


I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

Nosler factory BT and accubonds in my .308. Ive got several rifles from steyr to brownings and tikkas. Seems like the nosler stuff has always been impressive.

I stand corrected... Slight sarcasm there btw. I've gotten decent accuracy out of core locts but not consistent accuracy from box to box.

Always had good luck with Hornady Interlocks and lately with Federal Fusions.

Many years ago Hornady came out with their light mag line. My son has a Rem 700 in 7’08 that absolutely loved the 139gr SPs. In his gun, they were consistently a good bit under 1/2 MOA. They were also right on the verge of being too hot for it as about every 5th shot would cause a sticky bolt. He kilt a lot of deer with em.

Federal blue box, fusion or premium. I am not sure why, but never had to much luck with Hornady products.

I rarely hunt with it anymore but that's the only thing my 742 shoots good (not necessarily good from an accuracy standpoint). Everything else jams every time you pull the trigger but for some reason, that cheap core lokt ammo cycles flawlessly through it.

Killed a pile of grown uns with Hornady 139 Light Mag out of an A-Bolt II 7-08. And they'd shoot under 1" @ 100 yards , even with a low power scope with heavy duplex. I still have 2-3 boxes of them . smile

That Superformance stuff they sell now is sissy ammo compared to the old Light Mag stuff.

Too many people spend money they don't have , on things they don't need, to impress people they don't know.
