Hornady LEVERevolution 357 Mag 140gr FTX Ammunition - 25 Rounds

The Hornady LEVERevolution 357 Magnum ammunition transforms lever-action rifle performance with revolutionary Flex Tip eXpanding (FTX) technology. This 140-grain cartridge delivers safe tubular magazine feeding while maintaining the ballistic coefficient advantages typically reserved for pointed bullets.

What Makes This Different

Traditional lever-action rifles require flat-nose bullets to prevent accidental discharge in tubular magazines, significantly limiting ballistic performance. The patented FTX bullet features a soft polymer tip that compresses on impact while remaining safe during feeding and chambering. This design increases velocity retention and delivers up to 40% more energy on target compared to conventional flat-nose ammunition at typical hunting distances.

Key Features

• 140-grain FTX bullet with polymer tip for superior ballistic coefficient
• Safe for use in tubular magazine lever-action rifles
• Controlled expansion delivers 1.5x to 2x original diameter
• Nickel-plated cases resist corrosion and ensure smooth feeding
• Optimized powder charge for consistent velocities across temperature ranges
• 25 rounds per box, 10 boxes per case (250 total rounds)
• Compatible with all 357 Magnum chambered lever-action rifles

Field testing demonstrates consistent 2-inch groups at 100 yards from quality lever-action rifles, with muzzle velocities averaging 1,850 fps from 20-inch barrels. The FTX bullet maintains structural integrity through heavy bone while creating substantial wound channels in medium game. Hunters report reliable expansion from ranges of 25 to 200 yards, making this ammunition effective for whitetail deer, hogs, and similar-sized game. The nickel-plated cases extract cleanly even in adverse weather conditions.
