Hornady Ammo
Hornady: Accurate, Deadly, Dependable
Hornady Manufacturing was built and thrives to this day on a vision for the future, a trait firmly on display in its ability to harness technology, create cutting-edge designs and craft products enthusiasts deserve. The approach is genetic. The business remains family owned and operated after more than 70 years, and the Hornady spirit appears to be contagious, based on the prowess of its research and development teams.
Hornady History
Joyce Hornady was an avid hunter and shooter who, although deemed too old for service during World War II, taught marksmanship to security forces stationed at Nebraska’s Grand Island Arsenal. The duties didn’t slow his hunting, although the war effort’s drain on stateside supplies made bullets scarce. So, he figured out how to redraw .22-caliber rimfire brass into bullets suitable for centerfire cartridges. Sometime after VJ Day he partnered with Vernon Speer, and the design became available to the public under the “Speer Hornady Bullets” name.
Speer moved to Idaho and built his own legend. Hornady stayed in the Heartland and knew the post-war glut of surplus cartridges was good news for recreational shooters, but also understood the bullets they carried were not ideal for hunting. Add the sudden excess of components—brass, powder, primers—that would make the economy of reloading attractive to returning G.I.s and he saw an opportunity.
In 1949 he opened the doors of Hornady Manufacturing Company in Grand Island, NE. Its motto was, and still is today, “Accurate, deadly, dependable.” A .30-caliber 150-grain spire-point was the first bullet it made—a design that remains popular.
Korean War Slowdown
Sales totaled only $10,000 the first year—not enough to put the books in the black—although the figure tripled in the next 12 months. Staff size grew to four, then the Korean Conflict arrived, and its corresponding scarcity in raw materials. Commercial bullet production slowed, and rather than risk layoffs or idle the business, Hornady entered into a contract with the government to manufacture war effort items.
The approach worked and after fighting stopped production resumed to normal. Business was good and by 1958 it the company had outgrown the mid-town building it launched from—formerly an auto body shop. That year the company opened an 8,000-square foot factory west Grand Island, in an area outside city limits. The facility even included a 200-yard, underground range for testing, another testament to the company’s foresight. The location was remote at the time, but today it’s surrounded by buildings.
Hornady Innovation and Cartridges
Hornady added sales and marketing staff in the 1960s and the pension for innovation shined when company experiments identified an improved bullet design. The secant ogive spire point was the result, and it’s still used in most pointed-bullet profiles to this day. The technical-sounding approach, in simplest terms, improves ballistic coefficient and exterior ballistics by increasing the radius of the circle reflected by the pointy/rounded end of the bullet—in effect, smoothing things, improving aerodynamics and decreasing drag. Common sense, except if that radius gets too large accuracy is lost and if you sacrifice too much of the projectile’s straight-walled section it can have problems settling into the barrel’s rifling. Thankfully the engineers and ballisticians have done all the heavy calculus.
It wasn’t long until the company was offering everything from .22- to .45-caliber bullets for reloaders. Then, in 1964, Hornady rolled out its Frontier Ammunition line of cartridges. Built from surplus brass and Hornady projectiles at strict manufacturing tolerances, it quickly gained favor for performance and affordability.
Staff grew to 40 and sales climbed at an annual rate of 30 percent. Consumer demand was so great that manufacturing space was expanded to 25,000-square feet.
When the Vietnam war began the company faced a different challenge, though. Surplus brass vanished and, to ensure production continued uninterrupted, Hornady entered into mutually beneficial agreements with other major manufacturers. A byproduct of those relationships continues to this day—seen in the number of Hornady bullets in cartridges assembled by other companies.
Joyce Hornady’s youngest son, Steve, came to work for Hornady Manufacturing in 1970. Then in 1971 Hornady Manufacturing purchased Pacific Tool Company—Steve Hornady’s former employer—which had been making reloading presses and gear since 1928. One of the company’s last designs, a progressive press, was so innovative that it continues to be popular to this day.
Despite all the success and challenged, the emphasis on technology and improvement never faltered. In 1965 its engineers developed the Innergroove, scoring inside the bullet to ensure proper “upset” (mushrooming) on impact. The InterLock, which minimizes separation by using an interior ring, came in 1977.
Overcoming Tragedy
Joyce Hornady and two members of his staff died on Jan. 15, 1981, while traveling to the firearm industry’s annual Shooting Hunting and Outdoor Trade Show.
Steve Hornady took over as president. His wife Marval, who had already been working for the company for nearly a decade, became chairman of the board. Joyce’s daughter, Margaret Hornady David and her husband left corporate positions at Polaroid to join the team.
Hornady Ammunition
What followed is a rapid and unparalleled harnessing of groundbreaking technology in the company’s cartridges and bullets. A large part of that is the engineers the company has attracted, but without management willing to risk it on a concept, none of it would be possible. If you’re one of the many 6.5 Creedmoor fans, you can thank Hornady. It introduced the cartridge in 2007. More recently it gave us the 6.5 PRC and .300 PRC cartridges. Want reliable feeding and stopping power in your self-defense handgun? Hornady has the answer.
Hornady Critical Defense
One failure in your self-defense gun with your preferred carry cartridge is not acceptable. It’s a simple stovepipe on the range, but in a criminal confrontation, the results can be fatal. Hornady’s Critical Defense and Critical Duty lineup harnesses the company’s FTX (Flex Tip) Bullet tip technology that helps avoid feeding problems, minimizes clogging through barriers like clothing, yet delivers fight-stopping terminal performance. The former is fine-tuned for home- and self-defense, the latter tailored for law enforcement officers, who require better barrier penetration as they protect and serve. The cartridges are available for most handguns and even some long guns.
Hornady Custom XTP
The ultimate in self-defense loads from the company, however, may be it's Custom XTP (eXtreme Terminal Performance) line of cartridges. Renowned for their accuracy, the projectile is a hollowpoint covered in a jacket of gilding metal to ensure unfailing feeding. Serrations ensure proper upset on impact and the swaged core ensures in-flight stability with proper expansion. It’s available for a variety of chamberings.
Hornady LEVERevolution
Historically, one of the big limitations to lever-action rifles is a tubular magazine that requires cartridges to line up, single file. If those loads feature a ballistically superior pointed bullet and one of them strikes the primer ahead with enough force, the results are more than just “surprising.” Hornady was the first to solve the problem and put some exterior ballistics back into the equation using the same FTX technology.
Hornady A-MAX
When precision is key and performance cannot be compromised, take a close look at this Hornady line—from bullets for that precision reloader, to complete cartridges. The A-MAX projectile starts with a secant ogive profile to improve external ballistics, adds a swaged lead core to improve shot-to-shot repeatability and puts it in the company’s AMP jacket, which has virtually zero deviation in wall thickness. Add an ultra-low drag tip to improve ballistic coefficient and its an ideal option for anyone trying to make that long-distance connection, or dozens of them.

Hornady Critical Defense 9mm 115 Grain FTX – 25 Rounds
$26.85Product Type Ammo Manufacturer Hornady Condition New Bullet Weight 115 Grain Bullet Type Jacketed Hollow-Point (JHP) Use Type home defense Casing Type Brass Quantity 25 Ammo Caliber 9mm Luger (9x19) Manufacturer SKU 90250 Primer Type Boxer Magnetic No UPC Barcode 90255902501 Cost Per Round $1.07 per round Attention: Although this ammo typically features nickel-plated brass cases, supply chain issues have forced Hornady to temporarily load it with non-plated cases.
When you want your self-defense load to be as dependable as possible, your friends at Hornady are just the ones to turn to. This 9mm Critical Defense round is designed to feed, chamber and extract like clockwork, as well as deliver consistent recoil and ballistic performance with every trigger pull. The round’s sensitive primer reliably ignites its clean burning propellant, which is specially formulated to limit muzzle flash that would have impacted your night vision.
You can count on this round’s bullet to see you through a perilous encounter as well. It’s lightweight at only 115 grains, so recoil won’t throw your aim off too much. It’s also an FTX, which has a pliant polymer tip that will prevent the bullet’s hollow point nose cavity from choking on fabric before it can expand. The same tip also initiates violent expansion during penetration, so you’ll have the stopping power it takes to level threats fast. It’s peace of mind like only Hornady could provide, and you can depend on Wideners to ship fast and painlessly as well! -
Hornady BLACK 5.7x28mm 40 Grain V-MAX – 25 Rounds
$26.85Product Type Ammo Manufacturer Hornady Condition New Bullet Weight 40 Grain Bullet Type V-MAX Use Type match or precision shooting, plinking at the range, varmint hunting Casing Type Brass Quantity 25 Ammo Caliber 5.7x28mm Manufacturer SKU 90001 Primer Type Boxer Magnetic No UPC Barcode 90255720426 Cost Per Round $1.07 per round 5.7x28mm ammunition is hard to come by. Superior target and varmint hunting 5.7x28mm ammo by a trusted American manufacturer is even rarer still. That’s why we think it’s fair to say that you have found the jackpot. Hornady loads this BLACK label cartridge with the one and only V-MAX!
This round’s 40 grain bullet is a piece of polymer-tipped lightning. Its sleek meplat gives way to a gracefully tapered and thoroughly concentric Advanced Manufacturing Process jacket, complete with a swaged lead core for even better rotational stability. Once the flat-base bullet clears a 4.8” barrel’s muzzle at a rate of 1,810 fps, it’s going to show you just how accurate the little 5.7 can be.
The V-MAX’s real talent is its terminal ballistics. Once the tip connects with its target, its long tail rams into the precision-formed nose cavity surrounding it. This yields massive expansion, which is only made deadlier by the little flecks of shrapnel it throws out every which way. Just the thought of the V-MAX is enough to keep small game awake at night!
This ammo is loaded in good old Nebraska. It’s reloadable, it’s clean-shooting, and it ships fast. It’s the whole 5.7 yards! -
Hornady American Gunner 45 ACP 185 Grain XTP JHP – 200 Rounds
$214.85Product Type Ammo Manufacturer Hornady Condition New Bullet Weight 185 Grain Bullet Type XTP Use Type home defense, Subsonic Casing Type Brass Quantity 200 Ammo Caliber 45 ACP (Auto) Manufacturer SKU 90904 Primer Type Boxer Magnetic No UPC Barcode 10090255909040 Cost Per Round $1.07 per round Hornady has been at it since 1949. That’s over 70 years’ worth of experience you’re counting on when you choose the Nebraskan company’s American Gunner series 45 ACP ammo for your personal protection needs.
The eXtreme Terminal Performance jacketed hollow point is an accurate projectile. You often find it in handloaded match ammunition – but as its name suggests, it only exhibits its full potential when it is implemented in self-defense. The XTP features a drawn copper-alloy jacket. Unlike a conventional plated jacket, the XTP’s jacket is thick in its rear and grows thinner toward its tip. That makes the jacket surrounding the nose cavity weak enough to easily yield to rapid terminal expansion. And because the XTP’s rim is strategically weakened by an array of symmetrical notches, it is only more reliable at its most important job.
This ammo feeds with outstanding efficiency in a semi-automatic. The XTP’s jacket leaves no part of its swaged lead core exposed, which reduces the bullet’s risk of getting snagged during feeding. And because the XTP is seated in Hornady’s highest-quality brass case, the round is even better equipped to deliver the performance you deserve when your safety is at stake. -
Hornady Critical Defense 32 ACP 60 Grain FTX – 25 Rounds
$27.25Product Type Ammo Manufacturer Hornady Condition New Bullet Weight 60 Grain Bullet Type Flex-Tip-Technology (FTX) Use Type home defense, Subsonic Casing Type Nickel-Plated Brass Quantity 25 Ammo Caliber 32 Auto (ACP) Manufacturer SKU 90063 Primer Type Boxer Magnetic No UPC Barcode 90255900637 Cost Per Round $1.09 per round This 32 ACP cartridge from Hornady’s Critical Defense line of ammunition is an excellent investment if you keep a little pistol tucked away in your pocket or ankle holster. (It would serve you well if you use a Dreyse Light Carbine for varmint hunting, too, as incredibly rare as the rifle might be.) The cartridge features Hornady’s 60 grain FTX, a hollow point bullet with a nose cavity protected by a Flex Tip. The soft polymer plug keeps the cavity unobstructed by fabric and other debris during penetration, and then wedges downward to initiate rapid and debilitating expansion.
Hornady thinks of everything. They gave this round a corrosion resistant nickel plated brass casing, which is glossy enough to facilitate highly reliable feeding and extraction in a semi-automatic firearm. They also loaded it with low flash propellant, so your night vision will be spared if you have to open fire in the dark even if you favor a short barreled pistol! -
Hornady American Gunner 10mm 155 Grain XTP JHP – 20 Rounds
$21.85Product Type Ammo Manufacturer Hornady Condition New Bullet Weight 155 Grain Bullet Type XTP Use Type home defense Casing Type Brass Quantity 20 Ammo Caliber 10mm Auto Manufacturer SKU 91224 Primer Type Boxer Magnetic No UPC Barcode 090255912241 Cost Per Round $1.09 per round Hornady’s American Gunner series ammunition is built for unerring dependability – exactly what you want from your 10mm self-defense ammunition (assuming you like going home in one piece every night).
The eXtreme Terminal Performance is a premium jacketed hollow point. Between its swaged lead core and superbly concentric jacket, it has all it needs to showcase great accuracy (the very reason why several shooters compete with it). The rim of the XTP’s jacket is surrounded by notches, and significantly thinner than it is at the base of the bullet. Both of these features work in favor of wider, more reliable expansion following lower-velocity impact. The XTP’s jacketed rim also helps it avoid catching on anything as it feeds, and prevents damage that might have caused the JHP to exhibit suboptimal expansion. Hornady thinks of everything!
This is by no means the lowest-recoil ammo you could select for defense. Its heavy striking power is well worth that fiercer kick, however, and its flat trajectory won’t prove disadvantageous if you have to clear any amount of distance between yourself and the threat. -
Hornady Critical Defense Lite 9mm 100 Grain FTX – 250 Rounds
$274.85Product Type Ammo Manufacturer Hornady Condition New Bullet Weight 100 Grain Bullet Type Flex-Tip-Technology (FTX) Use Type home defense Casing Type Brass Quantity 250 Ammo Caliber 9mm Luger (9x19) Manufacturer SKU 90240 Primer Type Boxer Magnetic No UPC Barcode 10090255902409 Cost Per Round $1.1 per round True to its name, this 9mm cartridge from Hornady’s Critical Defense Lite label sports a lightweight 100 grain projectile. This reduces recoil, a feature of great value to those who carry a compact firearm for personal protection and would like to lessen the recoil they’re going to incur.
This round’s FTX projectile is wholly up to the task of personal protection. It’s a hollow point bullet with soft, pink polymer inside of its nose cavity that prevents clogging during penetration and afterward facilitates reliable, intensely harmful expansion. The “Flex Tip” is pink because Hornady donates part of the proceeds they make from their Critical Defense Lite line of ammo to breast cancer research!
Danger could strike at any moment, but it’s worst when it strikes in the dark. That’s why this round’s propellant charge is formulated to generate very little light when ignited -- with reduced muzzle flash, your first shot in the dark won’t be the last you’re capable of aiming properly!
Hornady’s top shelf brass cases, noncorrosive Boxer primers and low-fouling propellant are all engineered with outstanding reliability in mind. The Nebraskan outfit’s quality assurance team is very exacting, so you can take heart that this case of ammo contains 250 of the best solutions for personal protection with a smaller pistol on the market! -

Hornady Subsonic 9mm 147 Grain XTP JHP – 25 Rounds
$27.85Product Type Ammo Manufacturer Hornady Condition New Bullet Weight 147 Grain Bullet Type XTP Use Type home defense, Subsonic Casing Type Brass Quantity 25 Ammo Caliber 9mm Luger (9x19) Manufacturer SKU 90287 Primer Type Boxer Magnetic No UPC Barcode 90255902877 Cost Per Round $1.11 per round Hornady Subsonic 9mm ammunition is designed to give any suppressed pistol the performance it needs to excel at home defense applications. But even if your pistol is unsuppressed, you’ll still find that this ammo has got a lot to offer!
Hornady’s XTP bullet is often favored by match shooters due to its excellent accuracy, which is largely the product of its uniformly distributed swaged lead core and concentric copper jacket. But as a jacketed hollow point, the XTP is also designed for terminal expansion. It mushrooms especially reliably thanks to its notched jacket, which splits apart evenly to give way to uniform expansion. The jacket is also tapered to help guide consistent expansion while simultaneously providing the weight retention needed for effectually deep penetration.
This round’s 147 grain bullet is heavy. It still builds up sufficient chamber pressure to cycle a semi-auto, but it also prevents ignition from sounding a supersonic cracking report. Flash-suppressed powder will produce less light, which is of especial benefit if you wish to conserve your eyesight in low-light conditions. The XTP’s fully jacketed rim and Hornady’s consistent brass cases, Boxer primers and propellant charges all do their parts to support reliable functionality in all makes and models of semi-autos. -
Hornady American Whitetail 30-06 180 Grain InterLock SP – 200 Rounds
$224.85Product Type Ammo Manufacturer Hornady Condition New Bullet Weight 180 Grain Bullet Type Soft-Point (SP) Use Type hunting big game, hunting boar, hunting whitetail deer Casing Type Brass Quantity 200 Ammo Caliber 30-06 Manufacturer SKU 81084 Primer Type Boxer Magnetic No UPC Barcode 10090255810841 Cost Per Round $1.12 per round You’re not opposed to the 308 Winchester … in theory. But in your book, nothing beats hunting with the hallowed 30-06 Springfield cartridge. Hornady loaded this American Whitetail 30-06 ammo specifically for American hunters, but it’s a dandy choice for taking all kinds of game that traverse the countryside on four legs!
The InterLock bullet features Hornady’s signature secant ogive geometry, which combines an optimum bearing surface with a low-drag profile to promote extraordinarily accurate performance. If you fire it out of a 24” barrel (the length Hornady used to record this round’s 2,700 fps muzzle velocity), the 0.452 G1 BC bullet’s trajectory ought to peak at 2.1” before arriving at a 200-yard target (assuming a 1.5” sight height).
The InterLock owes its great durability to its cannelure and its InterLock ring, both of which fight against core/jacket separation during penetration. The InterLock doesn’t just punch a deep hole through flesh, of course. Thanks to its effective soft point design and skived, tapered jacket, it fans out wide to maximize trauma and energy transfer even at lower velocities.
This ammo is loaded in Nebraska with Hornady’s highest-quality supporting components. That includes fine reloadable brass cases, so you can make your own (even better) 30-06 in the comfort of your own castle. -

Hornady Critical Defense Lite 9mm 100 Grain FTX – 25 Rounds
$28.85Product Type Ammo Manufacturer Hornady Condition New Bullet Weight 100 Grain Bullet Type Jacketed Hollow-Point (JHP) Use Type home defense Casing Type Brass Quantity 25 Ammo Caliber 9mm Luger (9x19) Manufacturer SKU 90240 Primer Type Boxer Magnetic No UPC Barcode 90255902402 Cost Per Round $1.15 per round If you ever have to defend your own life, you’ll have plenty to worry about without adding heavy recoil to the list. Hornady Critical Defense Lite series 9mm ammunition is engineered to produce extremely light recoil – optimal if your physique falls on the smaller end of the spectrum, or you prefer a subcompact handgun for personal protection.
This round doesn’t use strange tricks to produce significantly lighter felt recoil. You see, recoil energy is determined by four factors: firearm weight, bullet weight, propellant weight and muzzle velocity. This round’s 1,125 fps muzzle velocity out of a 4” barrel is normal for a 115 grain projectile. But because its bullet weighs only 100 grains, it simply can’t kick the shooter with very much recoil!
The bullet is Hornady’s own FTX. It is a jacketed hollow point, with a skived jacket that splits apart to ensure reliable terminal expansion. The FTX’s nose cavity contains a polymer cylinder that prevents fabric from obstructing it and compromising its ability to expand within soft tissue. (The polymer is bubblegum pink because Hornady donates a portion of their proceeds from this ammo to breast cancer research!)
Hornady loads this ammo in Nebraska with superb brass cases and Boxer primers, as well as low-flash propellant that won’t instantly blind you should you have to open fire in a dark setting.Customer Reviews

Hornady BLACK 5.56x45 75 Grain InterLock HD SBR – 200 Rounds
$234.85Product Type Ammo Manufacturer Hornady Condition New Bullet Weight 75 Grain Bullet Type Soft-Point (SP) Use Type home defense, hunting boar, hunting whitetail deer Casing Type Brass Quantity 200 Ammo Caliber 5.56x45mm Manufacturer SKU 81296 Primer Type Boxer Magnetic No UPC Barcode 10090255812968 Cost Per Round $1.17 per round A short-barreled rifle (SBR) is an excellent tool for personal defense. But if your barrel measures between 10.5” and 11.5”, then you would be well advised to select ammo which is specially intended for it.
Hornady’s BLACK series 5.56x45 ammo is loaded with the 75 grain InterLock HD SBR. It excels at initiating expansion flowing low-velocity impact courtesy of its exposed supple lead tip and grooved, tapered jacket. It also has the durability it needs to defeat a wide variety of common barriers thanks to its cannelure and InterLock ring, which doubly anchor its jacket and core together. Hornady designed the InterLock HD SBR to excel at the FBI test protocol for self-defense ammo. They succeeded.
This ammo’s powder is similarly engineered to supply optimal functionality in SBRs. It minimizes blinding muzzle flash, softens report to an impressive degree, produces extremely little fouling, and does not overheat a suppressor. Hornady’s best brass cases feed without hesitation, and their Boxer primers are intensely reliable.
Hornady also recommends this ammo for medium game. A great choice for a midnight boar bonanza! -

This law enforcement grade ammo is loaded to extremely high standards for quality, performance and reliability.
This cartridge is outfitted with Hornady’s own FlexLock bullet. The 124 grain JHP features a Flex Tip, which is essentially a polymer plug that keeps the nose cavity unobstructed by debris in the event that the FlexLock has to penetrate a barrier before reaching its target. The FlexLock is even better equipped to defeat barriers thanks to its InterLock band, which keeps its jacket and high-antimony lead core from separating from one another. As the FlexLock retains all the weight it needs to penetrate its target deeply, its Flex Tip presses into its nose cavity to yield wide terminal expansion.

Others say the internet is some kind of frontier. Us? We don’t know about any of that stuff, but we’re certain we’ve got the best kind of frontier right here in our warehouse: Hornady Frontier, which always represents a rewarding solution to any kind of target shooting you could name.
This is Hornady’s 6.5 Grendel target load, although we have no doubt it would prove effective at varmint hunting even if its bullets can’t supply any amount of terminal expansion. The 123 grain full metal jacket is devoid of steel, so you can fire it at any range, and its cannelure ensures that recoil won’t jerk it out of its seating. An excellent choice for casual target practice that doesn’t merit the use of name brand tipped or hollow point bullets.
Each Frontier series cartridge is loaded with a precision-drawn and polished brass case – just as smooth cycling as it is reloadable. Hornady’s military-grade Boxer primers are good eating for any AR’s firing pin! -

Hornady Critical Defense 5.7x28mm 40 Grain JHP – 25 Rounds
$29.85Product Type Ammo Manufacturer Hornady Condition New Bullet Weight 40 Grain Bullet Type Flex-Tip-Technology (FTX) Use Type home defense Casing Type Brass Quantity 25 Ammo Caliber 5.7x28mm Manufacturer SKU 90000 Primer Type Boxer Magnetic No UPC Barcode 90255900002 Cost Per Round $1.19 per round As the creator of the V-MAX, Hornady has always been important to the 5.7x28mm ammunition world. It only stands to reason that the Nebraskan company would eventually begin loading their own 5.7 instead of letting FN Herstal do it for them. And here you go: Hornady Critical Defense ammo to complete your EDC loadout!
This cartridge doesn’t feature the V-MAX. Instead it showcases the reliable accuracy and terminal ballistics of Hornady’s very own FTX jacketed hollow point. The projectile capably defeats a heavily clothed threat courtesy of its Flex Tip, which prevents the nose cavity from becoming ineffective as a result of becoming obstructed with fabric particles. The force of penetration also compresses the supple Flex Tip, which only does more to secure rapid and injurious terminal expansion.
You won’t appreciate one of this ammo’s most helpful features unless you fire it at night. Its specially formulated propellant minimizes muzzle flash to ensure that bright light doesn’t undo your eyesight’s acclimation to low lighting – the reason why you’ll be able to maintain visual on the threat after squeezing off your first shot. -

And by “jimblies,” we mean severe lack of subsonic 300 AAC Blackout target ammunition? Then the cure is close at hand. We’re offering you Hornady Frontier!
This cartridge’s bullet is too heavy to pose any risk of breaking the sound barrier. It’s what’s scientifically referred to as a “big boy” – a heaving 208 grains, which attains muzzle velocity 100 fps shy of supersonic when it is fired out of Hornady’s 24” test barrel. You could ask for no better if you’re trying to see what your suppressor can really do!
And you won’t have to turn your pockets inside out in order to observe such subsonic performance. Hornady outfits this target puncher with a full metal jacket, which isn’t engineered for expansion, or particularly deep penetration at that. (We’re quite sure you could make good use of this ammo’s FMJs for varmint hunting, though.)
This ammo’s high-quality bullets, reloadable brass cases, and clean-burning explosives all prove that Nebraskans know what’s what. Order as many boxes as you like, because our boss told us we can’t keep whatever we don’t wind up selling! He also told us not to microwave fish in the company breakroom!

No. For example, this premium 10mm Auto ammo will not help you paint your house. But it does perfectly solve one very specific problem: “How do you defend yourself using only a 10mm firearm?”
This round’s 155 grain bullet presents a huge problem to anyone who attempts to violently end your existence. The eXtreme Terminal Performance, or XTP (Hornady took a little creative license with that acronym, admittedly, but they’ve earned that right) serves up excellent accuracy. Its jacketed rim doesn’t get dented by the feed ramp, so it remains aerodynamic while it’s being chambered. Its swaged lead core and copper-alloy jacket are both balanced, which gives the XTP excellent in-flight stability.
The XTP also produces highly reliable terminal expansion. Its jacket is drawn instead of plated, which is why it is thick around its base and thin around its rim. Its jacket is also divided into symmetrical sections by a series of precision cut serrations. Together, these features enable the XTP to expand at a uniform rate and to a wide diameter under a wide range of conditions.
Count on this ammo’s matched primer/powder pairs to supply a steady 1,410 fps muzzle velocity out of a 5” barrel. That translates to well over 600 ft lbs of striking energy at close range. Each Custom load also features the highest-quality reloadable brass case Hornady could manufacture or source. -

$25.85Product Type Ammo Manufacturer Hornady Condition New Bullet Weight 75 Grain Bullet Type Hollow-Point Boat Tail (HP-BT) Use Type match or precision shooting, plinking at the range, varmint hunting Casing Type Brass Quantity 20 Ammo Caliber 223 Remington Manufacturer SKU 80264 Primer Type Boxer Magnetic No UPC Barcode 90255802641 Cost Per Round $1.29 per round You’re not messing around. You’re going to prove that “effective range” is merely a concept by covering insane distances with your 223 Rem rifle – and Hornady Superformance is precisely the 223 Rem ammo you need to do it!
This cartridge is loaded with a big boy 75 grain projectile. That extra mass equals greater inertia, ergo higher resistance to wind deflection hundreds of yards downrange. As a hollow point boat tail, the bullet possesses the form-fitted lead core it needs to exhibit formidable rotational stability and the tapered base that helps to conserve momentum.
Whereas your run of the mill 223 round’s 55gr FMJ achieves a G1 ballistic coefficient of 0.243, this round’s tack driver of a 75gr HPBT has a G1 BC of 0.395. In other words, its trajectory will peak at about 5.23” before it reaches a 300-yard bullseye (assuming your rifle has a 24” barrel, which is the test barrel length Hornady used to record this round’s 2,930 fps muzzle velocity, and your sights are set 1.5” high).
Hornady’s Superformance Match series ammo achieves a muzzle velocity that’s about 200 fps higher – without producing more unwanted recoil, muzzle blast, fouling or chamber pressure in the process. This ammo hails from Nebraska, where Hornady loaded it with their highest-quality reloadable brass cases and primers.
Please note: Despite its appearance, the HPBT will not deliver terminal expansion. It is solely designed for accuracy. -

Outstanding accuracy and excellent wind resistance out to 500 yds.
-
These rounds consistently deliver 3/8"-1/2" ,5 round group at 100 yds. With my 67 yr. Old eyes and trigger finger I am quite pleased with the results. Wind drift for a full scale 90 degree wind was only about an inch at a 100 yds also.

Hornady American Whitetail 30-06 180 Grain InterLock - 20 Rounds
$25.85Product Type Ammo Manufacturer Hornady Condition New Bullet Weight 180 Grain Bullet Type Soft-Point (SP) Use Type hunting big game, hunting boar, hunting whitetail deer Casing Type Brass Quantity 20 Ammo Caliber 30-06 Manufacturer SKU 81084 Primer Type Boxer Magnetic No UPC Barcode 90255810844 Cost Per Round $1.29 per round The American Whitetail brand from Hornady presents today's hunters with the perfect blend of proven powders and powerful projectiles to successfully punch tags with every outing. These .30-06 Springfield cartridges have been tuned for dependable function in bolt-actions like the Savage Axis XP and semi-automatic hunting rifles like the Browning BAR. Each round contains versatile propellant within a reloadable brass casing that has a clean-igniting centerfire primer installed at its bottom. Hornady completes the round with a 180-grain InterLock soft point load which falls within the caliber's medium weight range.
The InterLock projectile has a perfectly shaped body for drag resistance, a toothed cannelure for accuracy preservation, and an exposed lead nose that causes massive expansion during entry into a deer or other game animal. This expansion is slowed by the bullet's cannelure as well as by its base-locking ring, allowing the bullet to punch into vital areas before slowing and distributing its energy in order to damage the heart, lungs, and nerves. This design contributes to sure stops so that the game target experiences minimal suffering before providing a meal to hardworking hunters.

Hornady Subsonic 45 ACP 230 Grain JHP – 200 Rounds
$259.85Product Type Ammo Manufacturer Hornady Condition New Bullet Weight 230 Grain Bullet Type XTP Use Type home defense, Subsonic Casing Type Brass Quantity 200 Ammo Caliber 45 ACP (Auto) Manufacturer SKU 90971 Primer Type Boxer Magnetic No UPC Barcode 10090255909712 Cost Per Round $1.3 per round Carrying a 45 ACP pistol doesn’t make you better than other people. You were better than others long before you began carrying a firearm. A distinguished character such as yourself surely already knows that Hornady makes fine ammunition in the great state of Nebraska. Now’s your chance to bank on their experience for self-defense!
This cartridge owes efficacy for personal protection to its eXtreme Terminal Performance. The XTP is a jacketed hollow point, but its jacket is far more high-tech than the standard JHP’s. Its fully jacketed rim undergoes feeding without getting dented and snagged; it also protects the XTP on impact so it can proceed to deliver reliable terminal expansion. The XTP’s notches aren’t its only feature which promotes wider-diameter expansion. The bullet’s jacket is also tapered, and becomes exceedingly thin around the nose cavity to ensure that it splits apart quickly and evenly.
This is Hornady’s Subsonic series ammunition. Its 230 grain XTP will clear a 5” barrel at a rate of 925 fps (which in all fairness isn’t really all that remarkable a feat for a 45 Auto cartridge). This suppressor-friendly ammo is loaded with low-flash propellant, however, so it is especially well-suited for defensive fire in dark environments where intense muzzle flash could blind you. -

Critical Defense cartridges from Hornady are designed specifically for home defense, giving you reduced recoil, minimal flash, and excellent terminal performance.
The 90-grain bullet has a hollow tip that delivers controlled expansion. With a muzzle velocity of 1,200 feet per second and a muzzle energy of 288 foot pounds, these cartridges offer plenty of stopping power. They are excellent for small, lightweight revolvers thanks to the reduced recoil.
