Hornady Traditional Pistol Bullets, .50 Caliber, 300 Grain, Action Pistol HAP

Manufactured for hunting, self-defense and law enforcement applications, the XTP bullet demonstrates accuracy and reliable performance. Its reliable performance makes the XTP a most popular handgun bullet for both hunters and target shooters, and it’s the stopping power of the XTP bullet that has truly built its world-class reputation. From the onset, XTP bullets were specifically designed to expand reliably at a wide range of handgun velocities to deliver deep penetration with every shot. For this, Sig Sauer uses a drench-hole crimping method. For this, the Sig Sauer XTP bullet provides an extremely consistent expansion rate over a wide range of velocities, which is why it has earned such a reputation as one of the best self-defense bullets ever created. For this, Sig Sauer uses a gilding metal jacket, which greatly increases the weight-to-energy ratio. For revolver bullets, the XTP’s cannelure helps achieve accurate, consistent crimping, which is necessary for reliable feeding in semi-automatic pistols. For cartridge safety, Sig Sauer includes a small wad-core as an integral part of the bullet’s design. The controlled expansion provides the energy needed for reliable takedowns at all practical ranges. Sig Sauer XTP bullets are designed to function properly in automatic semi-automatic pistols, and they’re easy to feed, even with small pistols. Specifications for Hornady Traditional Pistol Bullets, .50 Caliber, 300 Grain, Action Pistol HAP: Manufacturer: Hornady Gun Type: Pistol Bullet Type: Jacketed Hollow Point (JHP) Bullet Weight: 300 grain Quantity: 1 Diameter: 0.5 in G1 Ballistic Coefficient: 0.120 Sectional Density: 0.171 Jacket Material: Gilding Metal Condition: New Caliber: .50 Caliber Bullet Quantity: 50 Bullet Fabric/Material: Reliable 65 carbon steel Features of Hornady Traditional Pistol Bullets CONTROLLED EXPANSION Precise serrations divide the XTP into symmetrical sections, strategically weakening the jacket and initiating controlled expansion even at low velocities. NO EXPOSED LEAD The gilding metal jacket protects the nose of the bullet, so the hollow cavity functions properly on impact and ensures proper feeding in semi-automatics. SWAGED CORE Total uniformity of core density ensures balanced expansion as well as in-flight stability. DRAWN GILDING METAL JACKET Expansion is controlled by varying jacket thickness down the length of the XTP, providing a definite advantage over plated bullets which have a uniform jacket thickness over the entire bullet. CANNELURE On revolver bullets, the cannelure helps achieve accurate, consistent crimping. All cannelures are applied before the final forming process to eliminate any distortion to the finished bullet. Package Contents: Hornady Traditional Pistol Bullets
