Hornady 45 Cal 300gr HP
Sold in bulk or by the sealed factory case.
The Hornady 45 Cal 300gr HP is a dependable, heavy-hitting projectile designed for big game hunting and precision reloading. Featuring a traditional hollow point design with an exposed lead tip, this .45 Cal bullet delivers devastating expansion and exceptional terminal performance. It’s ideal for hunters who demand consistent weight retention and deep penetration through dense tissue or bone.
Built with Hornady’s legendary InterLock® technology, the bullet incorporates a raised ring inside the jacket that locks the lead core and jacket together upon expansion. This ensures the projectile retains more of its original mass and energy, resulting in clean, ethical kills. The secant ogive profile improves ballistic performance, providing flatter trajectories and enhanced accuracy across a wide range of velocities.
This 300gr HP features a precisely tapered jacket to control expansion at both low and high speeds. Its one-piece lead core resists separation, allowing it to punch through tough barriers without fragmenting. With optimized jacket thickness and swaged core construction, the bullet performs predictably on impact—making it a preferred choice for reloaders seeking reliability in every round.
Packaged in bulk bullets or by the factory-sealed case, the Hornady 45 Cal 300gr HP is an excellent option for high-volume shooters, hunters, and reloaders who prioritize value and performance. Whether you’re reloading for a .45-70 Government or another big-bore platform, this bullet offers proven results and is a great addition to any benchstock.
INNER GROOVES
Strategically weaken the upper section of the jacket, ensuring consistent, controlled expansion, even at long range.
TAPERED JACKET
Jacket thickness is precisely controlled for expansion at all velocities.
ONE-PIECE CORE
Does not separate like two-piece divided cores. The InterLock® retains more mass and energy for deep penetration and large, consistent wound channels that ensure quick, clean kills.
CANNELURE
Provides accurate and consistent crimping and works with the InterLock® ring to ensure the core and jacket remain locked during expansion.
INTERLOCK® RING
The raised InterLock® ring is embedded in the bullet’s core, ensuring the core and jacket are locked in one piece during expansion to retain mass and energy.
