Federal F3006FS3 .30-06 Springfield Ammunition

Fusion 180 Grain .30-06

Federal Fusion F3006FS3 is a .30-06 Springfield hunting load built around a 180 grain bonded soft point bullet. It is made for medium-sized game such as deer, where the bullet has to hold together through hide and bone and still expand. The heavy-for-caliber 180 grain weight suits hunters who want deep penetration from a classic bolt-action or semi-auto .30-06. Each box holds 20 centerfire rifle cartridges.

Features

• .30-06 Springfield Chambering — Loaded for rifles marked .30-06 Springfield (often stamped 30-06 SPRG), one of the most widely used big-game hunting cartridges in North America.
• 180 Grain Bullet Weight — Grains are the standard unit for bullet weight (7,000 to a pound), and 180 grains sits at the heavy end of common .30-06 loads for more penetration.
• Bonded Soft Point Construction — The copper jacket is bonded to the lead core so the two do not separate on impact, which helps the bullet keep its weight as it drives through game.
• Soft Point Expansion — Exposed lead at the tip starts the bullet opening up on contact, creating a wider wound channel than a solid-nosed bullet.
• 2,700 FPS Muzzle Velocity — The load leaves the muzzle at 2,700 feet per second with 2,915 foot-pounds of energy.
• Retained Downrange Energy — It carries 2,540 foot-pounds at 100 yards and 2,206 foot-pounds at 200 yards.
• 1,900 FPS Expansion Threshold — Federal rates the bullet for reliable terminal performance down to 1,900 feet per second impact velocity.
• Brass Cases — Boxer-style brass cases are the standard for centerfire hunting ammunition and can be kept by reloaders.
• Made In The USA — Produced by Federal in the United States, as marked on the box.

Load Specifications

This is Federal part number F3006FS3, UPC 029465097998, packed 20 rounds to a box with a box weight of 1.40 lb. The Fusion line pairs a bonded soft point bullet with a brass case and centerfire primer, and the deer emblem on the packaging marks it as a medium-game load. Check that your rifle's barrel or receiver is marked .30-06 Springfield before loading, since the cartridge is not interchangeable with other .30-caliber rounds.
