Hornady LEVERevolution 45-70 Gov 250gr MonoFlex Ammo 20/Box

The Hornady LEVERevolution 45-70 Government 250-grain MonoFlex ammunition transforms lever-action rifle performance with pointed bullet technology previously impossible in tubular magazines. This ammunition delivers significantly flatter trajectories and increased energy retention compared to traditional flat-nose bullets, extending effective range by up to 250 yards.

What Makes This Different

The patented Flex Tip technology allows pointed bullets in lever-action rifles without the safety concerns of traditional spitzer bullets in tubular magazines. The elastomer tip compresses upon chambering, then returns to its pointed shape for superior ballistic performance. This innovation increases velocity retention and delivers up to 40% more energy at 200 yards compared to conventional 45-70 loads.

Key Features

• 250-grain MonoFlex bullet with Flex Tip technology for safe tubular magazine use
• Solid copper construction provides 95%+ weight retention and deep penetration
• Flatter trajectory extends effective range 100-250 yards beyond traditional loads
• Muzzle velocity of 2,025 fps generates 2,276 ft-lbs of energy
• Premium brass cases engineered for consistent ignition and extraction
• Specially formulated powder optimized for lever-action cycling
• 20 rounds per box, 10 boxes per case for bulk purchasing

Field performance demonstrates exceptional accuracy in lever-action rifles, with many firearms achieving sub-2 MOA groups at 100 yards. The MonoFlex bullet expands reliably at velocities down to 1,600 fps, making it effective for both close-range woods hunting and longer prairie shots. Weather-resistant primer sealing and case mouth sealant ensure reliable ignition in adverse conditions.
