Anyone know what kind of bullets these are?

[U.S.Ray]

Hey all, I'm new here.

A few years back, I bought a bag of .429" 240gr bullets. Idk who makes them, and it's always had me curious. I've shot a lot of them using Hornady XTP data, and never had a problem. I've never seen any other bullets quite like these. It's a regular looking copper full metal jacketed bullet from the side, but the tops are folded in, and there's a tiny dot of exposed lead in the center.

I'll work on getting pictures. I have one on my phone, but the site is asking for a url address.

Are they the Hornady HAP Bullet?

None of those. How do you post pictures?

That looks like an XTP FP. I’m curious to see what others say. Where did you get them.

I think you're right. I just went and looked at my xtp/fp and they look just like the picture. Mine are .357/.38spcl though.

Think the mystery is solved.

I do not recall a 240grn XTP FP 44cal. The 357cal 158 and 125, and the 50 cal 500grn, but I don’t recall a 44cal 240 XTP-FP.

It does look like the xtp-fp bullets, but these aren't hollow points tho. I think I got them from wholesale hunter or midsouth. It was a few years back. I was thinking they were potentially Hornady bullets, but I've never seen another one like these exactly.
