Fort Scott Munitions 45-70 Gov 300gr Solid Copper Spun Brush Hog TUI ammo is engineered for hunters who demand controlled expansion and deep penetration on medium to large game. The Brush Hog round combines a 300-grain solid copper projectile with Fort Scott's Tumble Upon Impact (TUI) technology, designed to fragment reliably while maintaining enough mass to reach vital organs through heavy brush, bone, and hide. If you're running a lever-action or modern 45-70 rifle and want ammunition that performs predictably on unforgiving terrain, this is purpose-built for that job.

Solid copper construction eliminates lead fouling and supports a cleaner shooting experience downrange. The TUI design means you're not relying on a traditional hollow point that might plug with debris—instead, the bullet's geometry encourages it to break apart on impact for rapid energy transfer. That matters in thick cover where precision shots aren't always guaranteed and a reliable, hard-hitting round becomes your backup plan.

Each box contains 20 rounds of consistently loaded ammunition. Whether you're scouting elk country in early season or hunting hogs in dense timber, Fort Scott's quality control and attention to terminal ballistics make this a logical choice for serious 45-70 shooters who refuse to compromise on performance or reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is TUI (Tumble Upon Impact) and how does it affect performance?

Tumble Upon Impact is Fort Scott's proprietary design that encourages the bullet to fragment in a controlled manner when it strikes game. Unlike traditional hollow points, TUI rounds are less likely to clog with hair, hide, or debris, ensuring more predictable energy transfer and expansion.

Will this ammo work in my 45-70 lever-action rifle?

Yes. The 45-70 Government chamber is the standard for lever-action rifles like the Marlin 1895 and Winchester 1886, as well as modern single-shots and bolt-actions chambered in 45-70. Verify your rifle's chambering before loading.

Is solid copper ammunition legal to hunt with?

Solid copper ammunition is legal in most states for hunting. However, check your local regulations—some areas have specific ammunition requirements. The Fort Scott Munitions Brush Hog is lead-free, which appeals to hunters in regions with lead ammunition restrictions.

What game is this ammo designed for?

The 300-grain Brush Hog is built for medium to large game hunting where brush penetration and reliable performance matter. The 45-70's power and the TUI design make it suitable for elk, hogs, and similar-sized animals in thick cover.
