Hornady 50 Cal 350gr XTP Mag

The Hornady 50 Cal 350gr XTP Mag is a specialized bullet component designed for handloaders seeking deep penetration, controlled expansion, and match-grade accuracy in .50-caliber magnum platforms. Weighing exactly 350 gr with a .510-inch diameter, this bullet uses Hornady’s XTP (eXtreme Terminal Performance) jacketed hollow-point profile optimized for high-pressure magnum environments and heavy-recoil applications.

Built around a finely engineered jacket and swaged lead core, the 50 Cal 350gr XTP Mag delivers consistent expansion while retaining weight, resulting in clean wound channels and dependable terminal performance. When driven to velocities between 1,600 and 2,000 fps in big-bore revolvers or break-action rifles like .50 AE Magnum or magnum muzzleloaders, it maintains stability and controlled expansion—ideal for large game and silhouette shooting scenarios.

The XTP jacket design ensures smooth expansion and resists core-jacket separation, even under heavy recoil. This durable construction, along with the symmetrical hollow-point cavity, helps the bullet deliver ethical terminal effects on heavy-skinned game. Sportsmen using this component report deep penetration and straight wound tracks, noting that the 50 Cal 350gr XTP Mag reliably delivers consistent mass retention and performance.

Compatible with barrels featuring twist rates between 1:20 and 1:24, the bullet stabilizes in large-bore revolvers and rifles, with a concentric jacket and polished bearing surface that support precise feeding and consistent seating. Handloaders value the 50 Cal 350gr XTP Mag for its repeatable trajectory, flat-shooting performance, and minimal barrel fouling over multiple match and hunting loads.

Manufactured in Hornady’s Grand Island, Nebraska facility, the Hornady 50 Cal 350gr XTP Mag is sold as a bullet component only and must be loaded with suitable brass, powder, and primers. Through strict quality control on jacket concentricity, lead core uniformity, and cavity geometry, the 50 Cal 350gr XTP Mag stands as a trusted choice for shooters demanding reliable expansion, deep penetration, and high precision in .50-caliber magnum XTP loads.
