Hornady Muzzleloading Round Balls are designed for hunting and target shooting with your muzzleloader. These round balls are cold swaged from pure lead and manufactured to be exceptionally uniform with no air pockets or voids. Each box contains 100 .490″ diameter balls weighing 177 grains, sized specifically for 50 caliber muzzleloaders.
The smooth round surface promotes better rotation and improved accuracy. By cold swaging from pure lead, Hornady eliminates the air pockets and voids that are common to cast balls, and the smoother, rounder surface ensures better rotation and consistency. These projectiles are made for use with shooting patches. The precision manufacturing delivers the uniformity that serious muzzleloading enthusiasts require, whether hunting or competing at the range.
These round balls perform best with slower twist rate rifles, such as 1:66 or smooth bore rifles. Backed by Hornady’s reputation for quality, these lead balls provide reliable performance and consistent results shot after shot.
