Hornady InterLock Bullets .45 caliber .458" 350 grain Round Nose are purpose-built for handloaders and hunters who demand consistent, controlled expansion and reliable weight retention downrange. Backed by Hornady's proven engineering, these .45 cal rounds deliver the precision and performance required for accurate reloading and terminal ballistics in large-game applications. Each box contains 50 rounds, providing a practical quantity for both range development and field use.
The 350-grain projectile weight balances momentum and velocity for optimal energy transfer across typical hunting ranges. The InterLock ring system—Hornady's trademarked mechanical lock between core and jacket—prevents jacket separation during expansion, maintaining consistent energy delivery even through heavy bone and dense muscle. This one-piece core-and-jacket design, combined with the polymer tip, generates reliable expansion while preserving structural integrity. For handloaders, the .458" diameter and RN profile offer straightforward seating and feeding characteristics across standard .45-70 Government and .458 Winchester Magnum applications.
This product is engineered for serious reloaders and hunters pursuing large game where shot placement and terminal performance are non-negotiable. The 350-grain mass suits rifles chambered in larger .45-caliber cartridges where velocity remains sufficient to produce rapid, predictable expansion. Users developing handloads for .45-70 or comparable platforms benefit from Hornady's QA standards and the proven InterLock construction, reducing variables and increasing confidence in field performance.
Hornady InterLock projectiles occupy a middle position in the big-game bullet market—offering controlled expansion and weight retention without the premium pricing of bonded or solid-copper designs. For hunters and reloaders prioritizing reliability and consistency over exotic construction, these .45 caliber rounds deliver measurable performance at a practical cost per round.
