wtnhunt Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 Pretty sure I read somewhere that the TC xtp and hornady xtp pistol bullets were one in the same, would make sense that traditions may also be selling the same bullets under their brand. We shoot the 240 grain TC xtp mags with a black diamond and have had good results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PA_RIDGE_RUNNER Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 The term or logo XTP I believe is wholly owned by Hornady. If someone else is using that term it has to be the Hornady bullet or Hornady would be sueing for both patent and trademark infringements.

WhiteSmoke Posted October 15, 2010 Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 Hornady XTP's I believe that Hornady makes two versions of the XTP bullet. There is the HP/XTP and the XTP/MAG. The HP/XTP comes in weights of 185 to 300 grains. The XTP/MAG runs 240 to 300 grains. Somewhere in my desk (I can't find it right now) is a chart of the design ranges for both. Basically, the HP/XTP is designed for lower velocities than the XTP/ MAG. I personally use the HP/XTP, both in 250 and 300-grain weights, as its design is more in line with muzzleloader velocities. It just works better than the MAG in a muzzleloader. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
