450 Bushmaster FAQs

Each cartridge has a purpose. 450 Bushmaster’s .45 caliber bullet results in larger expansion diameter on game. Leaving devastating wound channels with proper shot placement. On the other hand, the 308 Win and 30-06 SPRG are better suited for taking long-range shots, but the stout 30 caliber cartridges also have excellent terminal performance. Always know your scenario!

Both are powerful, big-bore cartridges. On one hand, the 45-70 GOVT has deep roots in the lever gun hunting community, while 450 Bushmaster ammo is designed for modern sporting rifles, including AR platforms and bolt actions. With both, you get big-game-stopping power, but expect easier follow-up shots from a semi-automatic 450 Bushmaster platform.

The 450 Bushmaster delivers moderate recoil compared to magnum rifles and other big-bores cartridges such as the 45-70 GOVT. Recoil largely depends on the weight of the gun; heavier guns typically experience less recoil, and lighter guns experience more recoil. Do not be nervous about recoil from the 450 Bushmaster. With proper form and a solid rifle setup, recoil is manageable for most shooters.

Remington's 450 Bushmaster hunting ammo, Core-Lokt and Premier AccuTip, are both loaded with a 260-grain bullet. A 260-grain bullet is an excellent choice for hunting bison-sized game and below. Regarding Remington bullet types, you can choose the iconic performance of a Core-Lokt load or opt for an AccuTip bullet, which offers accuracy with a Power Port and devastating terminal performance with a spiral nose cuts. Remington 450 Bushmaster ammo is loaded with quality and consistency for every hunt.
