Hornady LEVERevolution .45-70 Govt 325gr FTX ammunition redefines performance for lever-action rifles, combining a classic calibre with modern ballistic innovation. Engineered specifically for hunters seeking superior accuracy and terminal performance, this .45-70 Govt load features Hornady's groundbreaking Flex Tip Technology (FTX) to safely deliver dramatically flatter trajectories and increased downrange energy.

The patented Flex Tip (FTX) bullet is the cornerstone of LEVERevolution's design. Its soft polymer tip allows for safe use in tubular magazines, a critical safety feature for traditional lever guns, while simultaneously providing a high ballistic coefficient. This results in significantly flatter trajectories and improved accuracy at extended ranges, making those longer shots on game more achievable.

Hunters will appreciate the substantial increase in power. LEVERevolution ammunition delivers up to 250 feet per second faster muzzle velocity and up to 40% more downrange energy compared to conventional flat-point loads. With a muzzle velocity of approximately 2050 fps and muzzle energy of around 3032 ft lbs, this enhanced terminal performance ensures effective and humane hunting, providing reliable expansion and deep penetration on medium to large game.

Due to the revolutionary pointed bullet design of LEVERevolution, some older lever-action firearms, originally engineered for blunt profile bullets, may require an updated magazine follower for optimal feeding of the last round. We recommend consulting your firearm's manufacturer for specific compatibility information or to acquire a suitable magazine follower if needed. For best performance and to prevent tip deformation, it is not recommended to store LEVERevolution ammunition in tubular magazines for extended periods.
