Hornady LEVERevolution 44 Mag Description
Proudly offered by Hornady, a leader in ballistic technology, LEVERevolution® symbolizes an innovative breakthrough in ammo design as far as lever action rifles and revolvers are concerned. For many, it is the most exciting thing to ever happen to lever gun ammunition.
Central to the innovation and performance of this Hornady LEVERevolution 44 Magnum ammo is the patented elastomer Flex Tip® technology of the FTX® and MonoFlex® bullets it’s loaded with. These Hornady FTX bullets feature higher ballistic coefficients and – thanks to new, modern propellants that provide maximum velocity at conventional pressures – deliver a trajectory that is dramatically flatter for increased downrange performance.
Hornady LEVERevolution 44 Mag ammo in effect offers velocity increases of up to 250 fps over traditional flat point loads while still providing shock-absorbing safety in tubular magazines. Bullet expansion is equally impressive at all ranges.
In addition to delivering exceptional accuracy and overwhelming downrange terminal performance, 44 Mag LEVERevolution bullets also deliver up to 40% more energy than traditional flat point projectiles.
Overall, this ammo is truly an evolution in lever gun ammunition, and will live up to your expectations.
Bear in mind that while its state-of-the-industry elastomer Flex Tip Technology is safe in your tubular magazine, it is not recommended to store Hornady LEVERevolution ammo for extended periods in tubular magazines, because this may result in tip deformation.
Note also that in certain guns, the innovative FTX® and MonoFlex® bullet designs may require a newer magazine follower to provide the best possible functioning of the last round out of the magazine.

44 Mag LEVERevolution Additional Information
Bullet Design
To create projectiles that stand out from the rest, Hornady developed a soft synthetic plug to fit into the hollow points of bullets. This polymer plug or insert enables them to create spitzer bullets such as the Hornady LEVERevolution44 Mag ammo which can be loaded into the magazine tubes of lever-action rifles.
Because it has a soft tip – unlike the hard tips of hollow points or sharp-tipped soft points – an FTX bullet belonging to the LEVERevolution product line won’t detonate the primer of the cartridge ahead of it.

Thanks to this innovation, you can use sharp-nosed bullets safely, and those bullets can also now deliver better external ballistics, lower drag, flatter trajectories and better-controlled expansion.
Bullet Penetration & Expansion
Tests conducted with the Hornady LEVERevolution 44 Mag show that the bullets are capable of penetrating 22 to 23 inches of ballistic gel when shot from a distance of 50 yards. This level of penetration is no doubt sufficient to get through and out the other side of a big game animal like a deer, and even to take down heavier animals like wild hogs and black bears.
Expansion-wise, the same 44 Mag LEVERevolution tests showed that the soft-tipped Hornady FTX bullets produce mushrooms that are .650 inches in diameter, and only a slight amount of tipping at the end of the wound track. They also did not swap front for back as they sliced through the ballistic gel.
Primer Style
As it is positioned right in the middle of the casing base, the primer featured in Hornady LEVERevolution 44 Mag rounds is called a “Centerfire” primer. Unlike rimfire ammunition, centerfire ammo is significantly more powerful, and therefore causes more damage on impact with the target.
Firearm Fit
This ammunition works fine in .44 Magnum hunting handguns such as the Colt Anaconda and Smith & Wesson Model 29; in lever-action rifles or carbines such as the Rossi R92 in 44 Mag; as well as in other long barreled hunting guns of similar caliber.
Applications
The Hornady 44 Mag LEVERevolution is best used for hunting, even though self-defense has been included by the manufacturer as one of its applications. This is due to the fact that it boasts a high velocity, produces heavy recoil, and delivers an amount of stopping power, all of which aren’t really necessary for defensive purposes.
Its extent of penetration, which is excessive for defense, is yet another reason why the Hornady LEVERevolution 44 Mag is much more ideal for hunting. A bullet that expands fully and gets past the 12-inch mark – unlike this 44 Magnum ammo which penetrates up to two feet of ballistic gelatin – is better for defensive purposes as the risk of it over penetrating, exiting and posing a risk to bystanders, is minimal.
