What Makes This Different

Hornady's swaged lead construction produces balls with superior roundness compared to cast alternatives. The controlled manufacturing process eliminates air pockets and weight variations that can affect trajectory. Each ball measures exactly .451 inches in diameter with minimal deviation, ensuring proper bore engagement and consistent ballistics.
