Are Hornady FTX Bullets available 9mm & 40SW

[Rolynstone]

I'm finding product for rifles but not these 2 pistol calibers for reloading. The factory ammo is very expensive.

 

[Hartkopf]

Yes. MidwayUSA, Bass Pro, Academy, etc sell them.

EDIT, now I see FTX. Sorry I posted for XTP

Check Hornady's website.

I went to the Hornady site, Reloading, handgun, bullets and filtered for FTX in 9mm. No product listed. It seems they don’t sell them as a component.

Midway does show FTX in stock, some diameters may be suitable for 9mm. I didn't see anything for .40 but I may have missed it. The weights seem a bit funny though.

I think the .355 xtx are for rifles like the 350 legend. I don't recall seeing the ftx in my new hornady book for 9mm.

 

[ballman6711]

They also had a .357 and a .358 diameter. Again I don't know if they would be suitable for 9mm. The OP will have to make his own decision.

This and same goes for 40S&W:

I think the .355 FTX (fixed it) are for rifles like the 350 legend. I don't recall seeing the ftx in my new hornady book for 9mm.

They are not available as a component, unless you might find them as a pull down from somewhere. The way they expand, they might be just a little bit tougher to load. I have asked several of the guys that work there about the availability of these. As I recall, the previous supplier of FBI duty ammo did not have that bullet available as a component either… Don’t quote me on that one, however.

Yep, XTPs are readily available at most reloading vendors. .355" is the correct diameter for 9mm jacketed bullets. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=Hornady+XTP+bullets+for+sale&atb=v314-1&t=chromentp&ia=web

Hornady did not take dyslexia into account when naming their bullets. I saw XTP too. The OP is asking about FTX bullets.

Re-read the title.

OOPS! Not aixelsyd, just old. But same method of finding bullets for sale; https://duckduckgo.com/?q=Hornady+FTX+bullets+for+reloading+for+s

Checked Midway first, found 9mm/.355" bullets in 45 seconds.

Sounds like attempts at 350 and 400 legend reloading. I've only ever seen ftx for lever carbines. You might be able to use the .358 in 350. The pressure may be higher. In anything other than a tube mag anything else is a better option.

165 gr… looks like a rifle bullet.

.350Legend. It would be a chore to get that working in a 9mm pistol without doing damage.

 

[Rolynstone]

No FTX for most pistol calibers including 9 & 40. Midway lists rifle bullets. I saw .45 cal though.

Is that .452 or .458....

 

[ballman6711]

Both. The .452 bullets are 200gr and 250gr and look to have a cannelure, so I would assume they are made for 45 Colt.

So one is colt and the other is 45-70 both classic leverguns. I asked as I don't believe they make any for a semi...

 

[ballman6711]

I believe that is correct.

I also believe that one might be able to use some of the FTX bullets in a semi, although it may only be a single shot since they may be too long to fit in a magazine.
