XTP® 10MM (0.400") JACKETED HOLLOW POINT PISTOL BULLETS Reviews & Ratings

HORNADY XTP® 10MM (0.400") JACKETED HOLLOW POINT PISTOL BULLETS

Designed for hunting, self‑defense and law enforcement applications, the XTP® bullet demonstrates the kind of accuracy that led many competitive shooters to adopt it. Reliable performance makes the XTP® the most popular handgun bullet for both target shooters and hunters. But it's the stopping power of the XTP® bullet that has truly built its world‑class reputation. From the onset, XTP® bullets were specifically designed to expand reliably at a wide range of handgun velocities to deliver deep penetration with every shot.

PRODUCT FEATURES

CONTROLLED EXPANSION
Precise serrations divide the XTP® into symmetrical sections, strategically weakening the jacket and initiating controlled expansion even at low velocities.

SWAGED CORE
Total uniformity of core density ensures balanced expansion as well as in‑flight stability.

DRAWN GILDING METAL JACKET
Expansion is controlled by varying jacket thickness down the length of the XTP®, providing a definite advantage over plated bullets which have a uniform jacket thickness over the entire bullet.

CANNELURE
On revolver bullets, the cannelure helps achieve accurate, consistent crimping. All cannelures are applied before the final forming process to eliminate any distortion to the finished bullet.

Not as Pictured - Design Change?

My box of bullets only have one cannelure - not two as pictured. I contacted Hornady and they told me, "It can have either one or two cannelures on the bullet depending on the press tooling they are using." So I guess you won't know what you're going to get until you open the box. Brownells customer support looked at my picture and told me, "The picture on the box also shows just one cannelure." Appears to me the gentleman didn't even take a close enough look to distinguish the picture of the bullet from the real bullet. It won't do any good to rate how it shoots or works because I don't know if Hornady will change their press tooling and ship a different bullet to the next customer.
