Hornady MonoFlex .458 Cal 250gr Bullets - 50ct Box (45010)

The Hornady MonoFlex .458 caliber 250-grain bullets deliver devastating terminal performance for dangerous game hunting and long-range precision shooting. These solid copper projectiles feature Hornady's patented Flex Tip technology that initiates reliable expansion while maintaining deep penetration through heavy bone and muscle.

What Makes This Different

Unlike traditional lead-core bullets that can fragment or fail to expand consistently, the MonoFlex design combines a solid copper construction with an elastomer tip that drives expansion from the front of the bullet backward. This controlled expansion creates larger wound channels while retaining nearly 100% of the bullet's original weight. The result is superior knockdown power and more reliable performance on heavy game compared to conventional jacketed bullets.

Key Features

• Solid copper construction retains 95-100% weight for maximum penetration
• Patented Flex Tip technology ensures consistent expansion at all velocities
• 250-grain weight optimized for .45-70 Government and similar cartridges
• .458 diameter with precise tolerances for accuracy and consistent chambering
• Lead-free design meets all hunting regulations in lead-restricted areas
• Boat tail design improves ballistic coefficient and long-range stability
• 50 bullets per box provide excellent value for serious hunters

These bullets excel in dangerous game scenarios where deep penetration and reliable expansion are critical. The MonoFlex design performs consistently whether used in traditional .45-70 lever guns for bear hunting or modern bolt-action rifles for African plains game. The solid copper construction eliminates concerns about bullet fragmentation while the Flex Tip ensures expansion even at lower velocities common with these heavy projectiles.
