Does anyone know if Hornady's LEVERevolution ammo is still under patent protection? I'm just wondering if when the patents expire will all the major manufacturers start marketing their own flex tip bullet type ammo for leverguns?
To me it sounds as though you are implying that anyone that carries more than two rounds is either a bad hunter or just interested in killing and maiming an animal. Though the loads I intend to use this season are hard cast lead and have a muzzle velocity of 2000 fps for a 405gr bullet. If I carry more than two and I a bad hunter? Or have I just misunderstood your point?LEVERevolution ammo exists for one reason; to give the "hunter" a half dozen (or more) shots to kill an animal.
You are absolutely 100% correct, Justin....and that's exactly what I've been saying. It is intended to allow more than one round to be carried in the mag tube.
Absolutely true again. However, that option has always been available for lever-action shooters, with even more ballistically efficient bullets than the FTX, by simply loading 1+1 (one in chamber, one in mag tube).
