“hunting ammunition”

SIG Sauer has announced that it's adding .223 Rem. to its SIG HT line of premium-grade rifle ammunition. The new offering, which is designed with hunters in mind, features an all-copper bullet that's meant to deliver deep penetration and consistent 1.8x diameter expansion.

Designing a line of long-range hunting ammunition involves many engineering considerations. Federal Premium might have cracked the code with its new Edge TLR (Terminal Long Range) ammo.

CCI gets the lead out of some of its rimfire hunting ammunition.

There’s a new player in the hunting ammunition market, and its deer load works—well.

The new Fusion 10mm Auto load uses a 200-grain bullet and 1200 fps muzzle velocity to take full advantage of the 10mm Auto cartridge, with more energy and better terminal performance on impact.

While there may be a shine on some of the modern releases in the 6.5mm bore diameter, the 6.5x55 Swedish still makes a sound choice for the practical hunter due to its combination of terminal ballistics, flat trajectory and minimal recoil.

Admittedly, in the final analysis, cost and availability are not big factors in my deer hunting cartridge selection. But they are factored into the equation.

Ammo is in short supply. A brick of .22 LR cartridges commands as much as $40 now. If you can find it, budget center-fire pistol ammo is going for a buck a round.
