Most Helpful Positive Review Great 450 ammo
Very happy with the ability to get ammo in a timely manner. This was for a gun I borrowed for a hunt and the ammo showed up in time and held true to the original zero of the gun. I will be purchasing ammo from optics planet again.

hornady 450 bm flex tip

by t, Verified Owner from WV, United States Written on November 19, 2024
Good rounds, I use them to sight in my 450 but shot at a pumpkin and the wound cavity impressed me almost as much as my federal jacketed hollows. Good round for the price especially for target ammo, most are at least 10 dollars more a box

CVA cascade 450 bushmaster.

by Hobson, from PA, United States Written on November 28, 2023
The custom shot about a .6” group out of the CVA cascade and about .75” group out of the CVA scout V2. The Hornady black shot great also, however the custom was a little better.

Great accurate ammo at a good price

by Montana Meadows, from MT, United States Written on June 21, 2023
I bought this ammo for my BCA .450 Bushmaster. It was recommended by the manufacturer and now I know why. I had a rounds touching group at 100 yards with no break-in. There also were no misfeeds with a brand new rifle for the first box, which is all I have shot so far. For anyone who has one, you know this is not a plinking gun. Happy Hunting ahead.
Pros:
  • price and quality
Cons:
  • None
Best Used for:
  • Bears
Would recommend: Yes

Unexpected consistency

by Leroy, from MI, United States Written on February 5, 2023
I was impressed by the consistency of this ammunition. I had no problem holding 2 inch groups at 200 yards, with a sixteen inch barrel (Vortex scope, of course). I bought the gun for hunting in brush, and this ammunition will let me reach out as far as I will be able to in brush.
Pros:
  • Consistency is top notch
Cons:
  • None
Best Used for:
  • 250 yards and under
Would recommend: Yes
