Product Description

HORNADY 35REM 200GR LEVER-EVOLUTION

Ever since its introduction in 2006, LEVERevolution ammunition has brought grandpa's lever action rifle out of retirement and turned it into a firearm everyone is shooting. Featuring a soft polymer flex tip, it's tough enough to stand up to a jacketed bullet, but soft enough so it won't dent the primer of the round in front of it or cause accidental firing in a lever gun. This new technology makes LEVERevolution cartridges safe in tubular magazines. 

LEVERevolution ammunition features up to 40% more energy than traditional flat point loads and travels up to 250 fps faster. Feed your lever gun with a box today! This ammunition is new production, non-corrosive, in boxer primed, reloadable brass cases.

This is probably one of the best things ever to happen for the lever action rifle.  This ammunition allows the use of pointed bullets which have not traditionally been able to be used for fear of discharging the round in front.  These projectiles have a special soft tip which Hornady call FTX (flex tip expanding) which allows the use of the ammunition in rifles with tubular magazines.  Hornady claim that up to 250fps is gained in muzzle velocity over conventional lever action loads.  They also claim exceptional accuracy and up to 40% more energy than traditional flat point bullets.  Having seen the cartridges myself, and having read the factory information available, you could expect excellent results with this ammunition.  I would be interested in hearing from anyone who has used it.  The ammunition is also manufactured with the same projectile style in 3030; 357 Magnum; 44 Magnum; 444 Marlin; and 45/70 plus a few others.
