1.	 FLEXLOCK® BULLET
Incorporates two revolutionary Hornady® features: the 
patented Flex Tip® that initiates consistent expansion while 
preventing clogging, and the heavy duty InterLock® band that 
locks the jacket and core together.
2.	 CANNELURED BULLET WITH CRIMPED CASE
Cannelured bullet with crimped case reduces bullet setback 
during feeding.
3.	 INTERLOCK® BAND
This band works to keep the jacket and core from separating 
for maximum weight retention and proven terminal 
performance through all FBI test barriers.
4.	 BULLET CORE
The bullet core is made of high-antimony lead making 
it extremely tough, delivering controlled expansion for 
unparalleled terminal performance consistency through all FBI 
test barriers. It’s also more economical than bonded bullets.
5.	 NICKEL-PLATED CASES
Nickel-plated cases resist corrosion and greatly enhance low-
light chamber checks.
6.	 SEALED PRIMER AND CASE MOUTH
Waterproofing sealant has been applied to the primer pocket 
and case mouth to prevent moisture intrusion.
