Features

The Hornady Custom Cowboy 45LC 255 Grain Lead ammunition is designed for hunters and enthusiasts who demand accuracy and reliability. Here are some key features:

Traditional and Conventional Design

  • The bullet's classic conical and flat designs ensure perfect symmetry, which, when combined with the knurling at the base, delivers increased stability and accuracy. This positioning helps in authentic revolvers without nicking primers as the cylinder turns.

Special Knurling and Grease Ring

  • The knurling system holds an even distribution of lubricating wax over the bearing surface of the bullet, resulting in less leading. This feature is particularly beneficial for smooth functioning and reduced wear on the revolver's mechanism.

Cold-Swaged and Pre-Lubricated

  • The bullets are cold-swaged for total uniformity and balance, ensuring they perform consistently in various environments. Additionally, they are pre-lubricated to maintain smooth operation and reduce the risk of jamming.

Classic Design for Authentic Revolvers

  • This ammunition is designed to work seamlessly with traditional revolvers, providing a reliable and accurate performance. The bullets are engineered to fit perfectly within the cylinder, ensuring smooth feeding and ejection.

Applications

  • The Hornady Custom Cowboy 45LC 255 Grain Lead ammunition is suitable for small game hunting and target practice. Its high muzzle velocity and energy make it effective for hunting small game, and its accuracy makes it ideal for target shooting.
