For handloaders working up .50-caliber magnum handgun cartridges loads, the Hornady XTP Mag .50 Caliber 300gr Hollow Point Bullet (brand part no. 50101) from Hornady is a 300-grain XTP Mag Hollow Point component bullet worth a look. The XTP Mag is Hornady’s magnum-rated version of its widely used XTP handgun bullet, reinforced to handle the higher velocities and pressures of magnum handgun cartridges.

Key Specifications

• Bullet diameter is .500-inch, sized for .50-caliber magnum handgun cartridges.
• Weighs a nominal 300 grains.
• Bullet style is XTP Mag Hollow Point.
• Sold boxed in quantities of 50 per box.
• Precise jacket serrations divide the bullet into symmetrical sections, weakening the jacket in a controlled pattern so expansion starts even at lower impact velocities.
• A gilding metal jacket protects the nose while uniform core density keeps expansion balanced and flight stable.
• Built to the same controlled-expansion standard as the standard XTP, but reinforced for the higher velocities and impact energy of magnum handguns.
• This is a component bullet for handloading, not loaded ammunition, so you’ll still need your own cases, powder, and primers.
• Always cross-check current load data from the bullet manufacturer or a trusted reloading manual before working up a charge, since published data changes over time.
