For hunters who want the heaviest practical bullet from a 450 Bushmaster, Federal Power-Shok offers a 300 grain load built on a proven, affordable design. This listing is Federal Power-Shok 450 Bushmaster 300 grain ammo, MPN 450BMB, sold as a 200 round bulk case.
The 300 grain Power-Shok hollow point is a conventional cup and core hunting bullet built for dependable expansion. The heavy bullet trades a little velocity for momentum, which helps it drive deep on large-bodied deer and hogs. Federal rates this load at 1,900 fps with 2,405 ft-lbs of muzzle energy, a hard-hitting choice for brush and timber hunting at moderate distances.
The 450 Bushmaster was designed for the AR-15 platform and fits a standard AR-15 lower with a 450 Bushmaster upper, bolt, and magazines. It is also chambered in bolt action rifles such as the Ruger American Ranch, which makes it a popular choice for hunters who want one big bore round for both platforms. A common question is whether 450 Bushmaster is legal in straight-wall cartridge states such as Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana. It is a straight-wall case and qualifies in many of those areas, but regulations change and differ by state, so always confirm your local rules before the season. Compared with the 350 Legend, the 450 Bushmaster fires a much heavier .452 inch bullet, which gives it more energy and a wider wound channel at the cost of more recoil, so it suits hunters who value stopping power inside about 200 yards. With 200 rounds you can confirm zero and practice with the exact load you hunt with.
Federal Power-Shok 450BMB is new production ammunition, not reloads, made in the USA. Each cartridge uses a brass case with a boxer primer and is non-corrosive, and the boxer primed brass is reloadable for handloaders. Buying by the case also keeps you on one production lot, so point of impact and velocity stay consistent from box to box. This case comes in factory packaging as 10 boxes of 20 rounds for a total of 200 rounds of 450 Bushmaster 300 grain Jacketed Hollow Point (JHP).
