For some reason the Federal Fusion 150 grain 30-06 is the most accurate ammo I've tried in my rifle. I don't get good groups from my rifle anyway but I seem to be able to get around 2" groups with it. The next best is around 2.5"-3" groups from Federal Power Shok ammo. This is at 100 yards with a Browning BAR.
Anyway, so now that I see Federal offers a $5 rebate if you buy two boxes I was thinking of picking up 2 boxes since I was low. Now here is what I'm wondering. Should I get two boxes of the 150 grain since I've tried it and know how it shoots or should I try the 150 grain?
Basically quite a few of the bullets I've tried when comparing accuracy have been 150 grain bullets. The only ones that haven't have been Core Lokts which were 165 grain and I may have tried 165 grain Winchester Soft Points. Not sure if I shot them at a target or not.
So should I try the 165 grain or just stick with the 150? On average is there usually much of a difference? Anyone with this particular ammo tried both? I hate to spend $55 on ammo just to try it out. Or even $30 for one box.
