Hornady FTX Pistol Bullets .357 140 gr 100/Box

Hornady FTX Handgun Bullets: Precision and Performance

Hornady's FTX handgun bullets represent a significant advancement in pistol ammunition design, bringing proven Flex Tip technology to the handgun market. These .357 caliber, 140-grain bullets are engineered for shooters who demand reliable expansion and consistent performance across varying velocities.

Key Features

• Patented Flex Tip Design: The innovative polymer tip compresses upon impact, initiating controlled expansion that transfers energy efficiently while maintaining penetration
• InterLock Ring: Mechanically locks the core and jacket together, maximizing weight retention and ensuring deep, consistent penetration
• Secant Ogive Profile: Delivers exceptional stability and flat trajectories for improved accuracy at distance
• Heavy Jacket Construction: The reinforced jacket over the bullet's shank controls expansion and enhances accuracy
• Tubular Magazine Safe: Unlike traditional hollow points, FTX bullets are safe to load in lever-action rifles and other tubular magazine firearms

Performance Characteristics

These bullets achieve reliable expansion over a broad range of velocities—from modest handgun speeds to the higher velocities generated by lever-action rifles. Upon impact, the Flex Tip is compressed into the bullet's core, creating a devastating temporary cavity while maintaining the penetration necessary for ethical, effective shot placement.
