Hornady 300 Blackout 135 Grain FTX ammunition delivers proven terminal performance across a broad spectrum of tactical and hunting applications. This 20-round box of Custom ammunition combines Hornady's reputation for quality with ballistic efficiency, producing 2,085 feet per second from standard barrel lengths. The Flex Tip eXpanding (FTX) projectile is engineered to initiate rapid, consistent expansion while maintaining the penetration depth needed for effective energy transfer on target.
The 135-grain bullet weight in 300 Blackout is optimized for subsonic and supersonic barrel profiles, making this load versatile across AR-platform builds and other modern rifles chambered in this intermediate cartridge. Hornady's hand-inspection quality control protocol means each round is verified for consistent powder charge, primer seating, and case integrity before packaging—a standard that reduces user variability and enhances reliability in the field. The FTX tip's polymer construction prevents jacket/core separation while offering superior velocity stability compared to traditional soft-point designs.
This offering suits operators, precision rifle enthusiasts, and hunters who require ammunition that balances expansion with barrier performance. The 300 Blackout cartridge itself has become the standard for short-range rifle work, CQB-adjacent training, and specialized hunting where subsonic capability is desirable. Whether running a piston-operated carbine or direct-impingement system, the 135-grain FTX load produces manageable recoil while maintaining adequate velocity to activate terminal performance reliably.
