Hornady's website is proclaiming the offering of the Leverlution bullets for reloaders in 2009!! Might have to dust off my Marlin 336 for next fall. From what i see i'll be able to reload a 160 grain soft tip pill hovering around 2400 fps at the muzzle and a remaining 1000 ftlbs of energy at 300 yards. I wasn't enthused with buying the ammo but now that the bullets will be offered as a component i may have to play a bit with em this spring.

I think their R&D dept must be pretty busy. I noticed yesterday they also have a solid bullet much like the Nosler E-Tip, made of gilding metal with a polymer tip called the GMX. I've been really pleased with everything I've bought from Hornady.

Myself included. The 265gr. Interlocks that I shoot out of my .444 have done a fine jobs on 2 animals that I've harvested with it. But, I'll be sure to load up some of the Leverevolution. I have used the factory loads and noticed that the brass was shorter than virgin Remington .444 brass. by quite a bit. Will that make a difference if loading with standard brass I wonder?
