Not at all impressed
Since this was my first purchase of the .450 bushmaster, i decided to go with a reputable ammo company (Hornady). I purchased the Hornady black in 250 grain FTX #82246. 3 it of the 20 rounds in the first box did not even fire. Meanwhile my 12 year old son, whom the gun was bought for, did not want to shoot it after that. Can't wait to see what the 2nd box does..... Pros: Grouped very nice. Cons: Wasn't sure if they would fire or not.

Best .450 Bushmaster Ammo on the Market
This past 2017 hunting season, I hunted with a Ruger American .450 Bushmaster loaded with Hornady Black .450 Bushmaster 250 grain FTX flex tip ammo. I zeroed my rifle at 100 yards and shot a 5 round, 1 1/2" group which was good for me. In southern Michigan, some straight-walled cartridges are now legal to use including the .450. I harvested a nice 8-point and a 6 1/2 year old doe at 70 and 90 yards respectively. Buy this ammo if you own a .450! You will love the accuracy.

Did exactly what I needed it to do.
I purchased a complete upper, put it on an AR lower. No jams, or feeding issues, shot flat at 200yrds just like it said on the box
