Fusion® Ammunition Spokesman Brock Lesnar Is Back

Fusion Ammunition

ANOKA, Minn. --(Ammoland.com)-Federal Premium’s Fusion® spokesperson and MMA superstar Brock Lesnar declares “he’s back.” After a second stint with diverticulitis causing surgery in May, the former UFC Heavyweight Champion is ready to return to the octagon. Before he begins training again, Lesnar stormed the prairies of North Dakota for a prairie dog hunt south of Bismarck, ND.

Don’t Count Him Out
Lesnar went under the knife and had a foot of his colon removed on May 26, 2011 at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn. After a short hospital stay, he went home to Alexandria, Minn. and then onto his farm in Saskatchewan where he has been since recovering. Lesnar feels like a new man and believes becoming the UFC Heavyweight Champion again is in his future.

Prairie Dog Devastation
The bluebird skies and moderate temperatures made for ideal conditions as the former champ tag teamed with his brother Chad for a day of varmint hunting. The two shot several calibers from the 17HMR to .223, .22-250 and a .50 caliber Barrett BMG at prairie dogs ranging from 50-400 yards. “Prairie dog hunting is not only fun, but it’s a cure for the summertime blues,” said Lesnar. “I get great practice with my firearms, ammunition and optics… I can’t wait for the fall whitetail season to begin.”

Asked when MMA fans will see the heavyweight contender in the octagon again, the former champ replied, “sooner than later.” For an update straight from the source, visit http://www.fusionammo.com/brock_lesnar/default.aspx.

Fusion Ammunition Introduces Safari Line Ammo

Fusion Ammunition Safari Line Ammo

Fusion Ammunition

ANOKA, Minn. --(Ammoland.com)- Fusion is known for making devastatingly effective deer bullets. Now, using the same proven technology, Fusion is turning to African game.

Fusion Safari delivers hard line performance for safari hunters at an affordable price. These tough, accurate and lethal bullets are also effective on large game with similar ballistics to Federal Premium Trophy Bonded Bear Claw.

Fusion Ammunition announces a new Safari line specifically designed for African game.

The new rounds come loaded in .375 H&H–.458 Lott and are now available.

Proven Technology
Fusion Safari is built to drop African game and utilizes the same advanced technology from the highly popular Fusion deer ammunition. Fusion’s advanced molecular technique of electro-chemically applying the jacket to the core delivers consistent toughness. Enhanced aerodynamics contribute to superb accuracy and result in steady, precise performance.

The bullet weights and velocities of each Fusion Safari load match those of Federal Premium’s Trophy Bonded® Bear Claw for easy interchangeability. Learn more about these tough new loads online, at www.fusionammo.com/whatsnew/newproducts.aspx.

Reliable Performance
Fusion rifle bullets offer high weight retention to ensure deep penetration. Consistent, pre-programmed mushrooms are achieved through internal skiving. These new bullets feature special designs, meaning jacket-thickness and expansion is perfect for big calibers. These factors all combine to make a devastating combination for African game.

“These new safari loads are sure to give hunters an advantage over other similarly priced ammunition,” said Brand Director Rick Stoeckel. “We used proven Fusion technology and applied it to a whole new level with these hard-hitting and accurate rounds. Hunters will get reliable performance at a great price for tough African game.”
