Barrier Blind Performance.
FLEXLOCK BULLET
Incorporates two revolutionary Hornady® features: the no-clog, patented Flex Tip® design and the heavy duty jacket-to-core InterLock® band.
INTERLOCK BAND
Works to keep the bullet and core from separating for maximum weight retention and proven terminal performance through all FBI test barriers.
CORE
Made of high-antimony lead making it extremely tough, delivering controlled expansion for unparalleled terminal performance consistency through all FBI test barriers. It’s also more economical than similar bonded bullets.
NICKEL-PLATED CRIMPED CASES
