Hornady Ammo

Joyce Hornady was a man obsessed with precision.

“Ten bullets through one hole” was his philosophy, and this commitment has continued from the company’s founding to today, driving their success and popularity among hunters and target shooters.

The Hornady company was founded in 1949 but traces its roots to Joyce’s childhood, when he learned to shoot and hunt in western Nebraska. Later in life, Hornady would become a marksmanship instructor for a Guard training unit in Nebraska during World War II. After the war, Joyce, like many other shooters, became frustrated with the lack of accuracy and consistency from surplus Army ammunition. Using an assembly press in a rented garage, he began manufacturing the first line of Hornady bullets: a .30 caliber projectile, which remains a core offering for the Hornady company.

The business grew through the mid-20th-century, developing various product lines that included whole ammunition, bullets for hunting, and numerous other products.

Tragically, Joyce Hornady was killed in a plane crash on his way to the 1981 SHOT Show in New Orleans. The company lost its founder and visionary leader, but it didn’t loose Joyce’s sprit for innovation and precision.

In the late 1990’s, the company progressed as a leader in ammunition development and innovation. Through new processes of research and design, Hornady became better equipped to create breakthroughs in shooting technology. This restructuring is best seen in the .17-caliber “Hornady Magnum Round” (HMR) cartridge, a rimfire ammunition that reinvented small-arms precision. This cartridge is a favorite among thousands of target shooters and small-game hunters, and it’s currently the only cartridge to carry the Hornady name.

To this day, the company is still led by members of the Hornady family, including Steve (Joyce’s son) as the company’s president, Margret (daughter) as VP, and Jason Hornady (grandson) as director of sales.

Hornady remains at the forefront of accuracy and consistency in shooting. Look for their self-defense loads like Critical Duty, Critical Defense and FTX along with some of the best known hunting cartridges on the planet like LeveRevolution, A-Max, V-Max, SST and Interlock. While they create ammunition products for many different uses, their goal in every item remains the same: precision.

    Good load in Bulldogs and 2.75" Model 69 Smith. Penetrates well thru clothing, but it suffers from shallow depth in Ballistic gel. 13" is about max depth so SD use is not great. I have carried it but am not using it often as I fear it would not reach vital organs reliably. Mild recoil, and good accuracy. Like all .44 ammo, terribly over priced, altho this is the best prices I have seen.

    This ammo runs great in the Glock 21 G3. A lot of 230 fmj ball ammo sinks like a stone at 30 yards in the G21 G3 but this stuff is just like the ballistics data on this page shows- it sails flat and true and can ding cola can sized pieces of steel at 30 yards easy if you can deliver on your end. You can trust your life or your next hunting trip with this ammo. Excellent, accurate, reliable, and reasonably priced for the level of quality that Hornady is.

  • ☆☆☆☆☆
    I really like most Hornady products and have a lot of red boxes in my ammo/reloading cabinet, but I cannot give these 20gr XTPs top marks. Somehow, the Winchester equivalent just shoots noticeably better. At 100 yards with the same, quality barrel and same weather conditions (including light crossing wind) and the same barrel temperature: Hornady: 1.2 MOA, Winchester: 0.6 MOA. That said, unless you're hunting field mice, all of the above shots will fit well within your varmint's vitals.
