The Hornady Custom 500 S&W Magnum 300 Grain FTX Ammunition delivers serious stopping power for hunters and shooters who demand hard-hitting, reliable performance from their revolver. Built with Hornady's proven reloading expertise, each round in this 20-round box is engineered for consistency, accuracy, and dependable ignition when it counts—whether you're pursuing big game or shooting at distance where energy and penetration matter.
Hornady manufactures much of the brass in their Custom line, selecting and producing each case for reliable feeding, corrosion resistance, and the strength to handle maximum chamber pressures safely. The powder charge is matched precisely to the 300-grain FTX bullet and primer for optimal velocity, pressure, and lot-to-lot consistency. That attention to detail means every shot behaves like the last one, eliminating the guesswork in handload development or performance prediction.
The FTX bullet—Flex Tip eXpanding—is Hornady's modern answer to reliable expansion and penetration in a magnum handgun round. Unlike traditional hollow-points, the elastomer tip is designed to initiate and control expansion while resisting deformation during feeding and handling. This matters in a revolver where smooth, trouble-free cycling and consistent terminal performance are non-negotiable. The 300-grain weight delivers the momentum the 500 S&W Magnum was built for, making this load a serious choice for hunting applications where deep penetration and energy transfer are essential.
If you shoot a 500 S&W Magnum and want factory ammunition you can trust to perform the same way every time, this is the standard many shooters gravitate toward. It's accurate, it hits hard, and it's made by a company that understands both reloaders and shooters who demand real-world reliability.
