Description
Federal’s Fusion line was purpose-built for deer hunting from the start, and the .22 Creedmoor loading extends that mission to hunters who want a flat-shooting, high-velocity cartridge capable of reaching out on open ground. The 75-grain Fusion Soft Point leaves the muzzle at 3,300 feet per second, which at that projectile weight delivers meaningful downrange energy while keeping the arc flat enough to reduce the guesswork on distance estimation in the field.
What sets Fusion apart from conventional soft-point construction is the molecular bonding process that fuses the jacket directly to the lead core rather than relying on mechanical attachment. A standard cup-and-core bullet can shed jacket material on impact, losing mass before energy transfer is complete. The bonded construction here keeps the bullet together through the initial violence of expansion, so more of the original weight stays on course through tissue. The pressure-formed core complements this by ensuring consistent density and concentricity, which contributes to repeatable expansion geometry rather than the variable results you can get from a poured or swaged core under high-velocity impact conditions.
The result is a bullet designed to expand reliably and retain a high percentage of its weight — both of which matter when the terminal goal is an ethical, clean kill on deer-sized game rather than fragmentation for varmint work. The .22 Creedmoor’s velocity advantage over slower cartridges of similar bore diameter gives the Fusion Soft Point the impact energy to initiate that expansion even at extended ranges. Twenty rounds per box.
