• Specially engineered heavy jacket over the shank works with the InterLock design to control expansion and maintain accuracy across a wide impact velocity range.
• Flex Tip profile and jacket design match the bullets used in popular factory lever-rifle loads, allowing reloaders to build ammunition with similar flight and impact behavior.

• The 160 grain weight and sectional density support reliable penetration on medium game such as deer and hogs, and it can also serve for larger animals within appropriate distance limits.
• Improved ballistic coefficient compared to traditional flat nose bullets helps your lever-rifle loads shoot flatter and hold energy better as distance increases.
• The Flex Tip design helps the bullet work across a wide range of hunting velocities, so your handloads for shorter barreled carbines and longer rifles can both deliver dependable expansion.
• If you reload for a 30 caliber lever-action rifle and want a tipped bullet that is safe in tubular magazines while offering modern ballistic and terminal performance, the Hornady 30 Cal .308 160 gr FTX Flex Tip eXpanding (30395) is a proven platform.
