Description

Hornady® FTX® bullets revolutionized lever-gun ballistics, creating a whole new level of performance for these popular firearms. Lever-gun enthusiasts can now harness the accuracy, power and long-range performance of a tipped bullet that’s safe to load in tubular magazines.

The Flex Tip,® combined with the Hornady® pioneered secant ogive design, creates an aerodynamic bullet with a
thinner, tapered front section and extended bearing surface for much higher ballistic coeffi cients. The FTX® flies faster and flatter than traditional lever-gun bullets, resulting in improved accuracy at ranges well beyond what was historically common.

The one-piece, high antimony lead core of the FTX® bullet is locked to the jacket with an Interlock® ring, resulting in reliable performance and deep penetration on large or heavy-bodied game animals. Designed to perform at muzzle velocities from 1,600 to 2,600 fps, FTX® bullets are ideal for hunters and shooters looking to give their lever gun new life.
