CONTROLLED EXPANSION
XTP bullets are famous for their ability to expand reliably
across a wide range of velocities. The XTP MAG bullet
was specially built to withstand incredible velocities, and
still deliver controlled expansion and weight retention.
Special features in the nose facilitate and control expansion
on impact. Others, like the cannelure, ensure the
jacket and core remain locked solid during expansion.
TERMINAL PENETRATION
XTP and XTP MAG bullets consistently deliver the
deep, terminal penetration needed for one-shot kills.
Hornady’s .45 caliber, 240 grain XTP MAG, .50 caliber
Black Sabot, and 150 grains of Triple 7 delivers a
blistering 2225 fps muzzle velocity!
The Hornady XTP MAG in 240 and 300 grain, along
with the black sabot, were specially designed for hunting
with today’s high-performance in-line muzzleloading
rifles. The XTP MAG bullet’s heavy-duty precision
construction delivers pinpoint accuracy and controlled
expansion at the high velocities produced by 150 grain

Available Sabots with XTP Bullets
SUPERB ACCURACY
The XTP is one of the most accurate pistol bullets ever
made, and it’s just as accurate in your muzzleloader.
Good shooters with quality barrels can consistently
achieve sub 1½-inch groups at 100 yards.
SABOTS ENHANCE ACCURACY
The plastic sabot protects the bullet as it travels
through the barrel and engages the rifling, then
falls away after exiting your rifle. Sabots enhance the
extreme accuracy of the XTP bullets.
EASY TO LOAD
No additional lubricants or patches are necessary with
Hornady’s XTP bullet/sabot combinations. Because
they load easier, you can reload for fast follow-up shots.
