Deep Dive

Overview

This ammunition is designed to meet the needs of serious handgun hunters. With a focus on delivering high-impact performance, it's crafted for taking down large game. Its design ensures deep penetration and reliable expansion upon contact with the target. The Monoflex bullet, a hallmark of Hornady's technology, ensures that hunters can rely on their rounds to provide lethal performance at various distances.

History and Development of Hornady 500 S&W Ammo

Hornady has been a staple in the ammunition industry since 1949, renowned for its innovative approach to ammunition design. The Handgun Hunter series represents a convergence of decades of experience in manufacturing high-performance projectiles. By adapting their rifle bullet technology into handgun rounds, Hornady has continually pushed the boundaries of what can be achieved from a large-caliber revolver round. The 500 S&W Magnum cartridge, in particular, was developed by Smith & Wesson in collaboration with Cor-Bon in 2003 as the most powerful production handgun cartridge, ideal for big-game hunting.
