Federal initially launched its 350 Legend cartridge with two soft-point 180-grain options in its Power-Shok and Non-Typical lines. Now, Federal has expanded this lineup with the addition of a molecularly bonded Fusion load, in a lighter, 160-grain weight, shipments of which have begun arriving at dealers.

“The 350 Legend delivers superior ballistics and fast velocities for a straight-wall cartridge. It has become quite popular because it’s legal for hunting in many areas where bottleneck centerfire rifle cartridges are prohibited,” said Federal centerfire product manager Eric Miller. “Fusion is one of our most loved product lines because it offers best-in-class performance. Offering 350 Legend in our trusted Fusion lineup is something we know deer hunters will appreciate.”

The 350 Legend cartridge touts significantly less recoil than .450 Bushmaster yet more energy than .223 Remington, making it perfect for MSRs and bolt-action rifles alike. Fusion, meanwhile, boasts the largest expansion and highest weight retention in its class, for maximum energy delivery on target. For more information, please visit federalpremium.comMSRP: $28.99
