Hornady Black .450 Bushmaster 250 Grain FTX ammunition is built for hunters who need straight-wall stopping power, reliable expansion, and consistent performance in the field. Designed specifically for medium game hunting, this load delivers the hard-hitting energy and dependable accuracy required for close to mid-range shots where performance can’t be left to chance. Whether you're hunting thick brush or open terrain, this cartridge is engineered to deliver confidence with every trigger pull.
At the core of this load is Hornady’s 250 grain Spitzer Flex Tip eXpanding (FTX) bullet, designed to combine aerodynamic efficiency with controlled terminal performance. The Flex Tip technology helps initiate reliable expansion on impact while the spitzer profile improves flight characteristics and downrange stability. This results in strong energy transfer, consistent penetration, and dependable performance on medium-sized game.
With a muzzle velocity of 2200 fps and a powerful 2686 ft-lbs of muzzle energy, this .450 Bushmaster load delivers serious impact force. It’s optimized for straight-wall hunting applications where hard-hitting terminal performance and reliable expansion are critical for ethical, effective harvests at practical hunting distances.
Each cartridge is assembled with a durable brass casing and a dependable centerfire Boxer primer to ensure smooth feeding, consistent ignition, and reliable cycling in compatible bolt-action and modern sporting rifles. Hornady’s strict manufacturing standards help maintain uniform pressures and consistent ballistic performance shot after shot.
Packaged in a 20-round box, Hornady Black .450 Bushmaster ammunition offers rugged reliability, controlled expansion, and the stopping power hunters need when it matters most.
