What's New?

Shhh... tell everyone!

Hornady® Subsonic Ammunition — designed for accuracy and performance below the speed of sound — now comes in both rifle and handgun loads.

Subsonic Handgun utilizes tried-and-true XTP® bullets that expand reliably at subsonic velocities. The Sub-X bullet used in Subsonic Rifle features a lead core. Long grooves in its gilding metal jacket combine with the bullet’s flat profile and the patented Flex Tip® insert within its hollow point cavity to help it expand reliably at low velocities.

Powders are selected for optimal performance and consistency from lot to lot.

Hornady® Introduces New A-TIP™ Match Bullet

The most striking visual feature of the A-Tip™ Match bulle t is its long, uniform, precision-machined aluminum tip.

A-Tip™ bullets will be available in 100-count boxes, and retailers will also sell sleeves of five sequential 100-count boxes packaged together, as well as a case pack of two 500-count sleeves for a total of 1,000 sequentially packed bullets. Since the bullets will not be touched or tumbled, there will be some slight oil residue, so a bullet polishing bag will be included with each 100-count box for the hand loader to use in preparing bullets for loading.

Visit hornady.com/BC for BC values measured at Mach 2.0 and Mach 1.75 for calculating trajectories when shooting long distances.

Use of the Hornady® 4DOF® ballistic calculator with pre-populated A-Tip™ bullet drag curves will provide the most accurate calculations. Visit hornady.com for full details
