FlexTip design and 325-grain ballistics

Hornady's LeverEvolution line uses FlexTip projectiles that prevent primer detonation in tubular magazine environments—a critical safety feature for lever-action rifles. The 325-grain bullet weight provides substantial energy retention across medium to long distances, making this round suitable for hunting applications where deep penetration matters. Brass cases ensure reliable extraction and reloading potential. Check our California-compliant handgun catalog for pistol options that pair well with your rifle setup.

Frequently asked questions

What makes FlexTip bullets safer in lever-action magazines?

FlexTip polymer tips compress on impact rather than striking the primer of the round ahead in tubular magazines, eliminating accidental detonation risk during recoil. This design allows pointed bullets to function safely in lever guns.

Is 325 grains appropriate for 45-70 hunting?

Yes. The 325-grain weight is a proven middle ground for 45-70 hunting—heavy enough for large game penetration, light enough for manageable recoil in lever-action rifles across typical hunting distances.
