Hornady Backcountry Defense Ammunition 500 S& W Magnum 500 Grain DGH Protected Jacketed Hollow Point Box of 20

The Hornady Backcountry Defense 500 S&W Magnum 500gr DGH is built for backcountry defense against dangerous game. This load pairs a nickel-plated case with Hornady’s DGH (Dangerous Game Hollow Point) bullet. As a result, it delivers deep, straight-line penetration through heavy muscle and bone. Hikers, guides, and campers in bear country trust this round for serious stopping power.

Why Choose DGH Bullet Technology

The DGH bullet uses a protected hollow point tip. An internal metal insert shields the cavity from clogging on brush or hide. Because of this, the bullet expands reliably instead of plugging up like a standard hollow point can. In addition, its heavy jacket and bonded core hold together through tough barrier penetration. Every round meets SAAMI pressure and dimension standards. For reference, you can review official cartridge specs at saami.org. Meanwhile, the nickel-plated case resists corrosion in humid field conditions. Fast shipping is available on every order. Recoil is stout, so practice before carrying this load in the field. A good grip and stance help manage it.
