Federal Fusion F65crdtfs1 6.5crd 140 Tip Fus 20/10

Federal Fusion 6.5 Creedmoor 140gr Tipped hunting ammunition combines proven terminal performance with modern ballistics engineering for hunters serious about medium-game shots beyond traditional ranges. The Fusion Tipped design builds on decades of field reputation—a polymer tip boosts ballistic coefficient and flattens trajectory, giving you better accuracy and flatter shooting out to extended distances while the molecularly bonded copper jacket and pressure-formed lead core deliver the deep penetration and weight retention that made Fusion a legend in deer country.

What sets Fusion Tipped apart is the marriage of two proven technologies. The polymer tip isn't window dressing; it meaningfully reduces wind drift and energy loss downrange, letting you extend your effective range without sacrificing the expansion reliability that matters when the shot counts. The electro-chemically bonded jacket ensures a perfectly uniform copper-to-lead bond, which translates to consistent performance across every round in the box—no guessing game with factory ammo.

The skived nose cavity paired with that polymer tip is engineered for lethal, reliable expansion on game without over-fragmenting or failing to penetrate. Loaded to a muzzle velocity of 2715 fps, this 140-grain round hits the accuracy and energy sweet spot for 6.5 Creedmoor hunters who've done their homework. Twenty rounds per box means you get enough to hunt hard and practice in between seasons.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between Fusion Tipped and regular Fusion ammunition?

Fusion Tipped adds a polymer tip that increases ballistic coefficient, reducing wind drift and drop downrange for flatter trajectories and extended range. The core technology—the molecularly bonded copper jacket and pressure-formed lead core—remains the same, delivering the same exceptional weight retention and penetration Fusion is known for. The tip also works with the skived nose cavity to initiate consistent expansion.

Is Federal Fusion Tipped good for hunting deer and similar medium game?

Yes. Federal designed this round specifically for medium-game hunting, and the 140-grain bullet with polymer tip and bonded construction is built for reliable expansion and deep penetration on deer-sized game across extended ranges.

What muzzle velocity should I expect from this 6.5 Creedmoor load?

Federal's Fusion Tipped 6.5 Creedmoor 140gr load ships at 2715 fps muzzle velocity. Actual velocity from your rifle may vary depending on barrel length, rifle condition, and environmental factors.

How many rounds are in a box?

Each box contains 20 rounds, giving you a practical quantity for hunting and range sessions.
