Known for consistent, powerful performance, Hornady ups the ante with their Custom line of ammunition. Factory built to tight tolerances with only high-quality components, Hornady Custom ammunition delivers performance that rivals the finest hand loads.

This Hornady Custom .50 Action Express ammunition is made with Hornady’s signature XTP projectiles. One of the most accurate pistol bullets ever made, XTP stands for eXtreme Terminal Performance and these innovative 300 grain projectiles certainly live up to their name. Specifically engineered to reliably expand at a wide range of handgun velocities, XTP jacketed hollow points deliver deep penetration and effective energy transfer, while carving effective wound channels in soft tissue.

The jacket thickness of the XTP varies down the length of the bullet to control expansion. This provides a major advantage over the typical hollow point design made with uniform jacket thickness. The XTP also features symmetrical serrations to strategically weaken the jacket, ensuring reliable expansion at low velocities. The swaged core of the XTP has uniform density and optimized balance. This design improves in-flight stability and makes the XTP one of the most accurate pistol bullets in the world.
