Product Information
Hornady 45-70 Government 325 gr FTX® LEVERevolution® Ammunition
Muzzle Velocity: 2050 fps
LEVERevolution® represents a breakthrough in ammo design for lever action rifles and revolvers. The key to its innovation and performance is the patented elastomer Flex Tip® technology of the FTX® and MonoFlex® bullets. Safe to use in tubular magazines, these bullets feature higher ballistic coefficients and deliver dramatically flatter trajectory for increased down range performance.
NOTE: The innovative LEVERevolution® FTX® and MonoFlex® bullet designs may require a newer magazine follower to provide best possible functioning of the last round out of the magazine in certain guns.
- FLEX TIP® TECHNOLOGY: The patented Flex Tip® technology of the FTX® and MonoFlex® bullets provide higher ballistic coefficients and velocity increases of up to 250 fps over traditional flat point loads while still providing shock-absorbing safety in tubular magazines.
- MODERN PROPELLANTS: New propellants provide maximum muzzle velocity at conventional pressures, resulting in flatter trajectories and more downrange energy. Exceptional accuracy and overwhelming downrange terminal performance.
- OVERWHELMING PERFORMANCE: LEVERevolution® ammunition outperforms conventional loads for high weight retention, delivering up to 40% more energy than traditional flat point bullets. The higher ballistic coefficients of the FTX® and MonoFlex® bullets produce consistently flatter trajectories than conventional bullets and provide overwhelming downrange terminal performance.
This is loaded ammunition.

Hornady has hit a home run with this one. Best lever ballistics for a tubular magazine that I've seen in a factory round. Run it through your favorite ballistics program with different sighting in ranges to compare this to what you are currently using.
Recoil is 'tolerable' in my lighter Henry X model with shorter barrel. Not bad at all with my brother's Henry with longer octagon barrel that weighs more.
Great prices and service from Grafs. I'll be buying more.
Perfect round for my Henry Lever Action rifle
