Product Overview
The Hornady Custom 165gr FTX represents Hornady's premium hunting offering in .350 Legend. The Flex Tip eXpanding bullet features Hornady's patented elastomer tip that compresses on impact to initiate controlled expansion, while resisting deformation during feeding in semi-automatic rifles. With 2200 fps velocity and 1773 ft-lbs of energy, this load delivers excellent terminal performance across typical deer hunting distances.
This ammunition is particularly well-suited for AR-15 platform rifles where reliable feeding is essential. The FTX bullet's polymer tip won't deform in the magazine like exposed soft points, ensuring consistent point-of-impact and reliable expansion shot after shot. The .250 G1 ballistic coefficient is among the best in the .350 Legend lineup, providing flat trajectories and retained energy at extended ranges where hunters may need to reach across food plots.
Hunters who demand premium bullet performance from their .350 Legend rifles will appreciate the Custom line's attention to detail. This load is excellent for hunters who practice extensively with their semi-automatic rifles and need ammunition that feeds as reliably during the hunt as it does at the range. The combination of premium FTX bullet technology with consistent Hornady manufacturing makes this an outstanding choice for serious whitetail hunters.
