Hornady 45215 FTX .452 Caliber 200 Grain Flex Tip Expanding Bullets, 50 Count

Hornady 45215 FTX Handgun Bullets are designed for reliable expansion across a broad range of velocities. Each .452 caliber, 200-grain bullet features Hornady’s patented Flex Tip eXpanding design, which compresses into the bullet’s nose upon impact to initiate controlled expansion and promote efficient energy transfer, including at lower velocities. These reloading bullets are suited for select .45 caliber and .460 S&W loading applications when matched with appropriate load data and components.
The InterLock ring mechanically locks the lead core and copper jacket together to help retain bullet weight and support deep penetration. A heavy jacket over the shank works with the proven InterLock design to provide structural integrity during expansion. The secant ogive profile promotes in-flight stability, flatter trajectories, and consistent accuracy, making these bullets a practical choice for handgun reloaders seeking dependable terminal performance and repeatable results.
Each bullet includes a cannelure to support secure bullet seating and proper crimping when applicable. The polymer tip initiates expansion while the copper jacket and lead core balance penetration with controlled deformation. With a ballistic coefficient of .145 and sectional density of .149, Hornady 45215 bullets offer predictable flight characteristics for properly assembled ammunition. This box contains 50 reloading bullets. Always consult current Hornady load data and follow safe reloading procedures, including verification of cartridge compatibility, seating depth, powder charge, and other component specifications.
