Performance & Reliability

This design philosophy makes the 357 Magnum 180 Grain A-Frame an excellent choice for hunting scenarios where shot placement might not be perfect or when shooting at various distances.

Real-world testing demonstrates that the A-Frame bullet expands reliably even at lower velocities, a critical feature for revolver ammunition where muzzle velocities are inherently lower than rifle rounds. The bullet’s sturdy construction maintains 90-95 percent weight retention through the entire expansion and penetration cycle, ensuring deep, reliable penetration on medium to large game. Hunters consistently report excellent results with Hornady 357 Magnum 180 Grain A-Frame ammunition on deer, wild hog, and other game animals at typical hunting distances.
