Hornady's saboted XTP hollow point bullets for .50 caliber muzzleloaders deliver deep penetration and controlled expansion at all practical black powder velocities. Each box contains 20 rounds ready to load.
Hornady's saboted muzzleloading bullets represent a thoughtful approach to extending the capabilities of .50 caliber rifles. These projectiles pair a .44 caliber Hornady XTP hollow point bullet with a .50 caliber sabot that ensures proper obturation and falls away cleanly upon firing.
The sub-caliber bullet design offers distinct benefits for the muzzleloading hunter. By using a lighter .44 caliber projectile in your .50 caliber rifle, you can achieve higher velocities without increasing your powder charge. This translates to flatter trajectories and improved downrange performance.
The XTP bullet is specifically engineered for the velocity ranges typical of black powder rifles. It delivers deep penetration and controlled expansion at all practical muzzleloading velocities—whether you're shooting a traditional sidelock or a modern inline rifle.
Each box contains 20 rounds of factory-assembled saboted bullets, eliminating the need for hand-assembly and ensuring consistent performance shot after shot. The green sabot provides visual confirmation of proper seating and helps with identification in the field.
