The Hornady Dangerous Game Handgun (DGH) 500 grain bullets are purpose-built for hunters and sport shooters who carry a .500 caliber handgun as a backcountry defense or hunting sidearm. These jacketed, heavy-for-caliber projectiles are engineered to deliver the kind of penetration and reliability demanded when a moment in the field can change everything. Unlike softer or cast-lead alternatives, the DGH design prioritizes controlled, straightline performance through tough barriers—exactly what you need when precision and stopping power matter most.
The protected-point construction locks the bullet nose to the core, resisting deflection and maintaining a consistent trajectory through hide, bone, and dense material. This isn't about explosive expansion; it's about penetration depth and energy retention where it counts. Because the DGH is a jacketed design, you'll also notice cleaner firing—no lead smoke fouling your sight picture during critical follow-up shots. That clarity and speed can be the difference in a high-stress encounter where your next shot may be your last.
Offered in convenient 50-count boxes, these bullets are sized for the .500" bore and scaled at 500 grains to maximize the energy potential of your favorite backcountry handgun. Whether you're reloading for a levergun or a specialty revolver, the DGH is built for shooters who understand that a proper dangerous-game round demands more than advertising—it demands engineering and proven terminal performance.

The Hornady DGH is designed for .500 caliber handguns and leveractions. These are purpose-built for backountry and dangerous-game defense or hunting applications where maximum penetration is required.
The DGH's jacket eliminates lead smoke upon firing, keeping your sight picture clear for quicker, more accurate follow-up shots. The full metal jacket also supports the controlled-penetration design without lead exposure at the firing line.
Each box contains 50 Hornady DGH bullets, sized and ready for reloading into .500 caliber cartridges.
The protected point locks the bullet nose to the core to deliver maximum straightline penetration while resisting deflection. This engineering ensures consistent, deep penetration through tough barriers—critical in a dangerous-game scenario where a deflected shot is a failed shot.
