Hornady LEVERevolution 338 Marlin Express 200gr FTX Ammo 20rd Box

The Hornady LEVERevolution 338 Marlin Express 200gr ammunition transforms lever-action rifle performance with revolutionary Flex Tip eXpanding (FTX) technology. This specialized cartridge delivers safe tubular magazine feeding while maximizing ballistic efficiency in traditional lever guns. Hunters gain significant velocity and energy advantages over conventional flat-nose bullets without sacrificing the classic lever-action experience.

What Makes This Different

Flex Tip technology solves the century-old problem of pointed bullets in tubular magazines. The soft polymer tip compresses safely against the primer of the cartridge ahead while maintaining aerodynamic efficiency downrange. Velocity increases of 100-200 fps over traditional flat-nose loads translate to flatter trajectories and extended effective range. Energy retention remains superior at hunting distances where lever guns excel.

Key Features

• 200-grain Flex Tip eXpanding bullet for controlled expansion and deep penetration
• Safe feeding in tubular magazines with pointed bullet aerodynamics
• Optimized powder charge for 338 Marlin Express chamber pressures
• Brass cases engineered for reliable extraction and reloading capability
• Consistent primer ignition for reliable performance in all conditions
• 20 rounds per box packaging for convenient range sessions
• Compatible with Marlin 338MX and similar chambered lever-action rifles

Field performance demonstrates the practical advantages of modern ballistics in traditional platforms. The 200-grain FTX bullet maintains energy for ethical shots on medium to large game at extended lever-gun ranges. Controlled expansion characteristics ensure adequate penetration on heavy-bodied animals while minimizing meat damage. Weather-resistant powder and primer components maintain consistency across temperature variations encountered during hunting seasons.
