Upon impact, the Flex Tip soft tip compresses into the bullet, initiating immediate expansion across a wide range of velocities. Safe to shoot in tubular magazines as well as any other firearm.Interlock Ring mechanically locks the core and jacket together for maximum weight retention and deep penetration.Pioneered by Hornady®, the secant ogive profile delivers stability, flat trajectories and amazing accuracy.The heavy jacket over the shank of the bullet combined with our proven InterLock® design controls expansion and enhances accuracy.Hornady® FTX® bullets revolutionized lever gun ballistics, creating a 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 patented Flex Tip,® combined with its secant ogive design, creates an aerodynamic bullet with a thinner, tapered front section and extended bearing surface for much higher ballistic coefficients. The FTX® flies faster and flatter than traditional lever gun bullets, resulting in improved accuracy at ranges well beyond what was historically common.
The high antimony lead core 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 give lever guns new life!
