20rds – 45-70 Govt. Hornady LEVERevolution 250gr. MonoFlex Ammo

Hornady Ammunition 250 Grain Solid Copper Ammo Details

Going hunting like they did back in the old days? Remember, it’s not considered cheating to use a high tech 45-70 Govt. cartridge if you want to get the best results. This round is from Hornady’s LEVERevolution line of ammunition, and it features a 250 grain MonoFlex projectile. The MonoFlex has got a Flex Tip, which is soft enough that you need never worry about ignition taking place in your rifle’s magazine instead of where it’s meant to in its action. That tip causes wide expansion upon impact, but because the MonoFlex is made exclusively of copper alloy it’s able to retain 95 percent or more of its weight as it mushrooms in a soft target. The MonoFlex additionally sports a secant ogive profile, giving it the accuracy your lever action rifle needs to wallop game from a distance.

This round represents an additional leap into modernity with its propellant that is formulated to deliver a fast 2,025 muzzle velocity without creating undesirable added chamber pressure. This cartridge’s brass casing evinces Hornady’s unwavering commitment to high quality, as does its non-corrosive primer.
