Hornady Black Powder 44 cal Lead Round Balls for Muzzleloading

Hornady .44 Caliber Lead Round Balls for Muzzleloading

The round ball is the original muzzleloading projectile — the same design that hunters and frontiersmen carried through the Rockies for centuries. Hornady .44 Caliber Lead Round Balls bring that tradition together with modern manufacturing precision, delivering the consistent diameter and weight that accurate patched round ball shooting demands.

Hornady cold-swages each ball from pure lead, a process that produces a perfectly uniform sphere with no air pockets, voids, or seams. That consistency matters more than most shooters realize — even small variations in diameter or weight cause fliers that ruin groups and cost you shots in the field. With Hornady round balls, you get the uniformity needed to develop a tight, repeatable load for your .44 caliber cap-and-ball revolver or traditional muzzleloading pistol.

The Right Ball for .44 Caliber Revolvers

Hornady's .44 caliber round balls are the standard choice for cap-and-ball revolvers including Colt 1860 Army, Remington 1858, and their modern reproductions. Loaded over a measured charge of FFFg black powder or Pyrodex P with a percussion cap, they deliver the authentic black powder revolver experience with the accuracy and consistency that Hornady's manufacturing is known for. The smooth, pure lead surface allows for clean loading and reliable obturation for a proper gas seal in the cylinder.
