I spoke to Hornady and they recommended their XTP-MAG bullet as did Freedom Arms. Both said they?d shot plenty of buffalo with them.

I had one of the gunsmith at Freedom arms tell me the reason they quite making bullets or should I say selling them is Hornady was making a great bullets for their 454's. IE: 300 xtp Mag.



I have to call FA this week and I?ll ask them about why they no longer produce this bullet. I will bet it was a financial decision.


When FA stop producing their bullets Winchester picked them up.


There`s no doubt that FA`s made an excellent bullet but whatever the reason they stopped with their JFP is one thing because my question to Freedom Arms is: why do they recommend XTP Mag bullets on big game??
