DoubleTap's 500 S&W Mag 400gr Hunter Self-Defense Ammo delivers the kind of stopping power that serious handgun hunters and dangerous-game shooters demand. Built on a hardcast wide flat nose gas-checked bullet design, this is purpose-built ammunition for taking large game and handling North American dangerous game situations where a revolver is your chosen defense. Each box contains 20 rounds loaded to 1800 fps, generating 2878 ft.-lbs. of energy from an 8.375-inch barrel—the velocity and force needed to penetrate deep, hold its cutting shape through bone, and create a large wound channel on game-sized targets.
The hardcast construction sets this load apart from conventional jacketed rounds. Hardcast bullets resist deformation better than lead-core alternatives, which means more consistent performance, deeper penetration, and less bullet fragmentation when you need reliable, one-shot authority. The wide flat nose profile enhances energy transfer and creates a wider wound cavity—critical factors when hunting in remote country or facing a true defensive emergency where shot placement happens fast and conditions aren't ideal.
If you're running a 500 S&W Magnum revolver for hunting elk, moose, bear, or worst-case self-defense in grizzly country, DoubleTap's hardcast ammunition is engineered to perform when it matters. This is no range plinking round—it's serious medicine for serious situations.

| Bullet Weight | 400 grains |
| Bullet Type | Wide Flat Nose Gas-Checked Hardcast |

The 500 S&W is a large-bore revolver cartridge designed for hunting big game and dangerous game defense. DoubleTap's hardcast load is engineered for hunters pursuing elk, moose, and dangerous game, as well as for shooters seeking reliable self-defense ammunition in extreme situations where deep penetration and large wound channels are priorities.
This ammunition is chambered in .500 S&W Magnum. Verify your firearm is chambered for this caliber before loading. Always consult your revolver's manual and manufacturer specifications.
Hardcast bullets are made from a harder lead alloy and do not use a soft lead core like conventional rounds. This construction resists deformation, provides deeper penetration, and maintains the bullet's shape through bone and heavy tissue—critical for hunting and dangerous-game applications where reliable performance is non-negotiable.
Each box contains 20 rounds of loaded ammunition ready to shoot.
