HRNDY 44MAG 300GR XTP 20/200

Description

Hornady Custom .44 Magnum with a 300-grain XTP bullet is built for hunters and handgun shooters who need a round that performs reliably on medium to large game, and is equally at home as a defensive load in the field. The XTP — eXtreme Terminal Performance — is a jacketed hollow point engineered to expand at a controlled, consistent rate across a broad range of impact velocities, which matters when shots on game don’t always happen at the distance or angle you planned for.

The jacket is constructed with a series of serrations that influence where and how the bullet initiates expansion, giving the design a degree of predictability that a conventional soft-point or standard JHP doesn’t always deliver. At 300 grains, this is a heavy projectile for the caliber, and that mass contributes to momentum retention after expansion — useful when penetration through bone or heavy muscle is required rather than rapid fragmentation.

Hornady loads this ammunition to hand-load standards in terms of powder charge consistency and primer selection, with each lot matched for pressure and velocity uniformity. The brass cases are reloadable, which is worth noting for handloaders who want to recover brass after a hunting trip. Muzzle velocity is 1,150 feet per second, producing 881 foot-pounds of energy at the muzzle — a level of performance that makes this load viable for deer-sized game at reasonable handgun distances when shot placement is sound. Each box contains 20 rounds.
