Customer Reviews for Federal Vital-Shok Trophy Bonded Tip 20RD 180gr 300 Winchester Magnum

great ammo Has dropped all big game wit one shot!!

I took these to Africa for plains game safari in 2018 hunting with a Colt LR topped with a Nikon Monarch. These bullets are true to the Trophy Bonded name! They are a modern version of the Bear Claw - tough and hard hitting.
At 225 yrds I took a full sized Water Buck (body size about that of a 2-3 yr old Elk). Bullet entered through the ribs, ripped open the heart and lungs, made it through the ribs on the other side and lodged in the skin. Perfect mushroom with little loss of mass. Similar results with a Kudu at 80 yards with much longer travel through the body (angled shot). Took an Impala dead on in the chest at around 100 yrds. Bullet went through the chest, entire body, and was lodged in the skin of the rump - another perfect mushroom. This was a spectacular kill as the Impala back flipped about 8ft off the ground. Longest shot was 300 yrds ar a Bush Buck. Flawless performance and accurate. Worth every penny.

Decided to try this ammo in a brand new Browning X Bolt Hell’s Canyon Long Range 300 Win Mag.
Simply put, it’s accurate.

SUPERLATIVE! Bud's Gun Shop saved me $12.00 a box on this premium ammo that I normally order from another web site, and have done a lot of business with over the past 15 years. I WILL ALWAYS SHOP BUD'S GUN SHOP FIRST FROM NOW ON! I WOULD RATE THIS PRODUCT AS OUTSTANDING IF THERE WAS A DOT TO CLICK ON.

I have struggled to find the right ammo for my Browning X-Bolt Eclipse Hunter 300 WM and this is it. At 100 yards, I can touch 5 rounds even with a hot barrel when I couldn't even put three rounds of any other ammo in the same 3 inch circle with this gun. The Vital Shok TBT 165g does not shoot as consistently (2 inch circle) but is still a good round, although I will lead off with the 180g for big game every time! I have always been a Hornady fan but I have a new respect and appreciation for this Federal round!
