The Hornady Dangerous Game Handgun (DGH) bullet in .357" 165 grain is a full metal jacket round engineered for the backcountry hunter or wilderness guide who carries a handgun as a last-resort defense tool. Built heavy-for-caliber, these jacketed projectiles deliver the penetration and barrier-breaking performance you need when a defensive encounter demands absolute reliability. Unlike cast options that produce smoke and complicate follow-up shots, the DGH's copper jacket burns clean, keeping your sight picture sharp and enabling quicker, more accurate second rounds if needed.
The defining feature of the DGH is its locked, protected nose—a design that resists deflection and drives straight through tough barriers (brush, bone, heavy hide) rather than tumbling or glancing off. That straight-line penetration is the whole point: in a worst-case backcountry moment, you need a bullet that does what you ask, not one that takes an unplanned detour. The heavy 165-grain mass maximizes the energy your favorite sidearm can deliver, helping offset the inherent velocity and power limits of a handgun cartridge.
These are reloading bullets, sold in a 50-count box. They're sized for standard .357" handgun applications and are equally at home in a magnum revolver, a carbine, or any other .357 firearm in your lineup. If you're loading ammunition for a defensive or hunting handgun and you need a bullet that won't let you down, the DGH is worth your attention.
| Caliber | .357" (38 Cal.) |
| Bullet Weight | 165 grain |
| Type | Full Metal Jacket (FMJ) |
| Product Line | Dangerous Game Handgun (DGH) |
| Box Count | 50 bullets |
The .357" diameter is the standard for .357 Magnum and .38 Special handguns, including revolvers and semi-automatics chambered for those cartridges. They're also compatible with .357 Magnum carbines. Always verify your firearm's specifications before loading.
The Hornady DGH's copper jacket produces no lead smoke on firing, which keeps your sight picture clear and lets you execute follow-up shots more quickly and accurately if needed. Hard cast options can generate smoke that obscures your view during a critical moment.
These are reloading bullets—component projectiles only. You'll need to combine them with cases, primers, and powder to assemble finished ammunition. The box contains 50 unloaded bullets.
The DGH features a protected, locked nose that resists deflection and penetrates straight through barriers like brush and bone without tumbling or glancing off. The heavy 165-grain weight for .357 caliber maximizes energy delivery, addressing the inherent power limits of handgun cartridges used for defensive or hunting applications.
