HSM 457016N 45-70Gov 550gr Hard Cast Long Flat Nose 20 Per Box/25 Case

Description

HSM .45-70 GOVERNMENT ammunition, 550 grain lead round nose, 20 rounds per box.

Plain lead, unjacketed. Inexpensive to make and common in practice loads; it leaves more fouling in a barrel than a jacketed bullet.

Bullet weight is given in grains; there are 7,000 to the pound, so this one weighs 550 grains. Within a calibre a heavier bullet generally leaves the muzzle slower and carries its velocity further, while a lighter one starts faster and sheds speed sooner.

Cost per round: $2.75.
