Description
Hornady’s LeveRevolution FTX in 140‑grain .357 Magnum is engineered specifically for lever‑action rifles and other platforms that use tubular magazines. The patented FTX (Flex Tip) polymer tip keeps the hollow‑point cavity open and is soft enough to safely sit nose‑to‑primer in tubular magazines while still reliably initiating expansion at rifle velocities. This load provides a consistent balance of expansion, penetration and weight retention for hunting medium game, defensive use from a carbine, or general-purpose shooting where the .357 Magnum’s power is desired. Manufactured to Hornady’s quality standards for consistent powder charges, seating and reliable feeding, LeveRevolution FTX is a premium choice for lever‑action shooters who want modern terminal performance from traditional platforms.
