The Hornady Frontier .45 Cal 255 gr Flat Point Cowboy Lead Bullets deliver authentic, period-correct ammunition for Single Action Shooting Society (SASS) competition and traditional cowboy action shooting. Built to SASS specifications while maintaining Hornady's rigorous production standards, these lead bullets combine classic design with practical performance for shooters who demand both authenticity and consistency downrange.
Each 200-count box contains pre-lubricated, cold-swaged bullets engineered to minimize leading and barrel fouling. The flat point profile and traditional conical geometry ensure reliable chambering in authentic revolvers without the risk of primer nicking as the cylinder rotates—a critical detail for competition shooters and period-correct handloaders. The 255-grain weight strikes the balance between cowboy-era ballistics and modern shooting reliability.
Hornady's exclusive knurling system at the bullet base locks lubricating wax across the entire bearing surface, reducing fouling and extending barrel life between cleanings. For reloaders focused on SASS competition or traditional black powder revolver loads, this uniform lubrication is the difference between a clean, fast-running session and frustrating lead buildup. The symmetry of the cold-swaged design ensures consistent velocity and accuracy, shot after shot.
