Hornady Handgun Bullets .38 cal .357″ 180 gr XTPHP 100/ct

Designed for hunting self-defense and law enforcement applications the XTP bullet demonstrates the kind of accuracy which led many competitive shooters to adopt it. Its reliable performance makes the XTP a most popular handgun bullet for both target shooters and hunters. It’s the stopping power of the XTP bullet that has truly built its world-class reputation. From the onset XTP bullets were specifically designed to expand reliably at a wide range of handgun velocities to deliver deep penetration with every shot.

• Precise serrations divide the XTP into symmetrical sections strategically weakening the jacket and initiating controlled expansion even at low velocities.
• Total uniformity of core density ensures balanced expansion as well as in-flight stability.
• Expansion is controlled by varying jacket thickness down the length of the XTP providing a definite advantage over plated bullets which have a uniform jacket thickness over the entire bullet.
• On revolver bullets the cannelure helps achieve accurate consistent crimping. All cannelures are applied before the final forming process to eliminate any distortion to the finished bullet.
