I see the non typical Federal ammo comes in 150 and 180 gr varieties. I'm guessing Federal probably use the same bullets in the powershok line. Price-wise the non typical line up appears to be cheaper than the powershok from a few places I've checked. I can't say I've had any experience with the non typical line but I guess if it shoots in your rifle it probably won't make a difference for deer hunting.
My understanding is that these are the exact same ammo just repackaged to sell to different audiences. Google it. You'll see people have stated they've called Federal and been told it is exactly the same. If you go on Federal's website and look up the performance of each round everything is exactly the same. It's just basic marketing. They make it look all patriotic and get people who weren't interested in the Powershok box to buy the slightly cheaper ammo. It's all the same.

I guess for every negative experience there is a positive. I've been killing game with federal powershok (.308 and .303) for as long as I can remember and find it to be excellent ammunition. I used other ammunition as well but have experienced nothing but acceptable if not great accuracy, no failures... not a one and it always does it job on game if I do mine. My .303 shorty with 180gr power shoks has never needed more than one shot to kill an average sized BC moose.
I've come to consider Federal Powershok to be "reliable ammuniton" and have purchased it in cases rather than by the box due to that reliability. Not trying to be a fan boy , just speaking from 2 decades+ of shooting the stuff in various rifles. .303, .308, 7mm rem mag and 30-06 so far.

Anything but.. I'd send it back and get what you want
