Hornady LEVERevolution .357 Mag 140 gr FTX

Description

Hornady LEVERevolution ammunition for .357 Magnum combines the brand’s Flex Tip (FTX) design with a polymer-tipped profile optimized for lever-action rifles and revolvers. The cartridge pairs a 140-grain FTX bullet with a higher ballistic coefficient to produce a flatter trajectory than many traditional lever-gun loads. Applications include hunting, personal defense, and general field use where controlled expansion and consistent external ballistics are desired.

LEVERevolution’s FTX bullets are engineered to improve downrange performance while remaining safe for use in tubular magazines; the polymer flex tip reduces the blunt-nose compromise of traditional lever-gun bullets and helps maintain more consistent trajectories. The combination of a higher ballistic coefficient and Hornady’s expanding bullet design yields dependable expansion and performance across practical hunting and defensive ranges. Note that LEVERevolution ammunition is not recommended for long-term storage in tubular magazines, as tip deformation can occur with extended storage.
