In the realm of precision and performance under the veil of silence, the Hornady Sub-X bullets stand as a testament to innovation in subsonic ammunition. These projectiles are engineered for those who demand effective terminal ballistics without compromising stealth.
The Sub-X (Subsonic — eXpanding) design is tailored specifically to operate below the speed of sound. This feature ensures that your shot remains undetectable by ear while delivering an impact that speaks volumes. At its core lies lead—a material chosen for its proven ability to penetrate deeply even at reduced velocities.
A careful examination reveals long grooves carved into the gilding metal jacket. These channels work in harmony with a flat profile and Hornady's patented Flex Tip technology nestled within the bullet’s hollowpoint cavity. The result? Reliable expansion upon impact, ensuring maximum energy transfer where it counts most.
Cannelures encircle each bullet, providing a positive case crimp—an essential characteristic for maintaining functionality in semiautomatic platforms where reliability cannot be compromised.
For shooters who value discretion without sacrificing efficacy, Hornady's Sub-X offers a solution that's both quiet and commanding. Whether you're on patrol or pursuing game in dense coverts, these bullets promise performance you can trust when it matters most.
