Hornady FTX Rifle Bullets: Lever-Action Performance Redefined

Hornady's FTX bullets revolutionized lever-gun ballistics by solving a critical problem: traditional hollow-point bullets are unsafe in tubular magazines and expand too quickly at the velocities lever-action rifles achieve. The FTX changes that equation entirely.

Key Features

Flex Tip Technology

  • Patented soft polymer tip compresses on impact to initiate expansion
  • Performs reliably across a wide range of velocities
  • Safe to load in tubular magazines—no risk of primer detonation from recoil

InterLock Ring

  • Mechanically locks the bullet's core and jacket together
  • Maximizes weight retention through the target
  • Ensures deep, consistent penetration

Ballistically Efficient Design

  • Secant ogive profile (pioneered by Hornady) delivers flat trajectories
  • Provides exceptional stability in flight
  • Produces the accuracy lever-gun shooters demand

Heavy Jacket Construction

  • Reinforced jacket over the bullet's shank controls expansion
  • Works in concert with the InterLock design
  • Enhances accuracy and reliability

The Bottom Line

Whether you're hunting or shooting competitively with a lever-action rifle, the Hornady FTX .355 165-grain bullet delivers the performance, safety, and accuracy you need. These bullets work in any firearm, but they truly shine in tubular magazines where traditional tipped bullets simply cannot be used.
