Hornady 45230 .45 Caliber 300 Grain Hollow Point XTP Ammunition

Hornady XTP Bullet: Precision and Power

The Hornady XTP bullet stands as a testament to the principles of accuracy, dependability, and sheer stopping power. Engineered for hunting, self-defense, and law enforcement applications, its design has earned it a reputation among competitive shooters and hunters alike.

At the heart of the XTP's performance is its meticulously crafted structure. Precise serrations divide each bullet into symmetrical sections. These serrations are more than mere lines; they strategically weaken the jacket to initiate controlled expansion even at lower velocities—ensuring that every shot delivers deep penetration with remarkable consistency.

The gilding metal jacket serves dual purposes: protecting the nose of the bullet while facilitating proper feeding in semi-automatic firearms—a crucial feature for reliability under pressure. The hollow cavity functions flawlessly on impact, further enhancing its effectiveness across various scenarios.

Technical Specifications:

• Caliber/Type: .45 Caliber XTP®
• Diameter: .452"
• Weight: 300 grains
• Ballistic Coefficient: .180
• Sectional Density: .210

A hallmark of this bullet is its total uniformity in core density which ensures not only balanced expansion but also impeccable in-flight stability. Unlike plated bullets with their uniform thickness throughout, the XTP boasts varied jacket thickness along its length—offering an unparalleled advantage by controlling expansion precisely where needed.

The cannelure on revolver bullets aids in achieving accurate crimping without distorting the finished product—a detail that underscores Hornady's commitment to quality craftsmanship from start to finish.

If precision shooting or reliable defense is your goal, let Hornady's XTP bullets be your choice—they deliver results when it matters most.
