The Hornady Custom 300 AAC Blackout 135 Grain FTX Ammunition delivers factory-loaded precision for shooters who demand handload-quality accuracy in a production round. Built on Hornady's reputation for meticulous quality control, this 20-round box pairs the proven 300 Blackout cartridge with Hornady's FTX polymer-tipped bullet—a combination that shines in both subsonic and supersonic applications. Each round is hand-inspected before packaging, ensuring the consistency and reliability that hunters and tactical shooters depend on.

The FTX bullet design balances expansion with penetration, making this load suitable for varmints and small-to-medium game while remaining effective for personal defense applications. Hornady's secant ogive profile delivers flatter shooting and reduced drag downrange, translating to more predictable bullet behavior at distance. Whether you're running a suppressed bolt gun in the woods or working with a modern sporting rifle, this ammunition gives you the confidence that comes from ammunition engineered for real-world performance.

300 Blackout shooters appreciate ammunition that performs consistently across a range of barrel lengths and suppressor setups. Hornady Custom loads reflect decades of ballistic refinement and field-proven bullet construction. This is ammunition for hunters and shooters who understand that precision starts at the loading bench—and doesn't end there.
