Hornady FTX .308 160gr Flex Tip Rifle Bullets

Hornady FTX Rifle Bullets: Modern Performance for Classic Firearms

Hornady's FTX Rifle Bullets represent a genuine breakthrough in lever-action rifle ammunition. These .308 caliber, 160-grain projectiles combine proven engineering with innovative design to deliver the accuracy and terminal performance that serious hunters demand.

Key Features

• InterLock Ring: Mechanically locks the bullet's core and jacket together, preventing separation and ensuring deep, consistent penetration through heavy game
• Secant Ogive Design: Creates an aerodynamic profile with extended bearing surface for a ballistic coefficient of .330
• Heavy Jacket Construction: The reinforced jacket over the bullet's shank works with the InterLock system to deliver controlled expansion and reliable performance

Why Choose FTX?

Traditional hollow-point bullets designed for handguns often expand too quickly when fired from lever-action rifles, sacrificing the penetration needed for ethical, one-shot kills on larger game. Hornady's FTX bullets solve this problem with a design that respects the higher velocities of rifle cartridges while maintaining the safety advantages required for tubular magazine feeding.

Whether you're hunting deer, elk, or other big game with a classic lever gun, these bullets deliver the accuracy, power, and reliability that separate successful hunts from missed opportunities.
