Unmatched Performance Through Precision Engineering

The core of this round’s exceptional capability is the 200-grain XTP bullet, a product of decades of ballistic research. The XTP is not a simple hollow point; it’s a system engineered for controlled, reliable expansion across a wide spectrum of velocities . This is achieved through a drawn gilding metal jacket with a carefully tapered thickness, which dictates how the bullet opens upon impact. Precise serrations in the jacket ensure it divides into symmetrical petals, creating a larger permanent wound channel while retaining mass for deep, consistent penetration. The swaged lead core guarantees uniform density, which is critical for in-flight stability and balanced expansion . Furthermore, the design features no exposed lead at the nose, which prevents clogging of the hollow cavity and ensures flawless feeding in semi-automatic pistols .

Supporting this advanced projectile is a cartridge built for consistency. Hornady uses select, high-quality brass cases, many of which they produce themselves, to ensure reliable feeding, proper hardness, and the ability to safely contain maximum pressures . Each lot is loaded with matched powders and primers chosen specifically for this load to deliver optimal pressure and velocity with minimal deviation from round to round . From a 5″ test barrel, this round achieves a muzzle velocity of 900 feet per second, generating 360 foot-pounds of energy. This combination of a medium-weight projectile and optimized velocity results in authoritative terminal performance with manageable recoil, allowing for faster, more accurate follow-up shots.

Built for Confidence in Critical Applications

This ammunition excels in scenarios where performance is non-negotiable.

• Personal & Home Defense: The XTP bullet is a proven choice for concealed carriers and law enforcement professionals . Its reputation is built on delivering predictable expansion and adequate penetration, creating an effective wound channel while minimizing the risk of over-penetration. When every shot counts, you need ammunition that performs as engineered.

• Hunting & Field Use: For hunters pursuing medium game with a handgun, the controlled expansion and deep penetration of the XTP design translate to quick, ethical harvests . The bullet is engineered to perform reliably at various impact velocities, making it a versatile choice in the field.

• Sport & Target Shooting: While optimized for terminal performance, the inherent accuracy of the XTP bullet and the consistency of the Hornady Custom line make it an excellent choice for serious target practice and competition . Training with your defensive or hunting load builds essential muscle memory and familiarity with your firearm’s performance.
