Dbltap 500sw 400gr Hardcast 20/500

DoubleTap Ammunition's .500 S&W 400gr Hardcast round delivers serious stopping power engineered for large game and dangerous game hunting. The wide flat nose gas-checked hardcast bullet maintains its cutting geometry through bone and heavy material while generating exceptional wound channel trauma—a critical advantage when terminal performance cannot be compromised.

This hardcast .500 S&W loading achieves 1800 feet per second velocity with 2878 foot-pounds of energy from an 8.375-inch barrel—energy levels that demand respect and deliver consistent deep penetration. The 400-grain projectile weight represents a carefully balanced choice for the .500 S&W Magnum platform, providing the mass needed for deep, straight-line penetration without sacrificing velocity. The gas-checked design minimizes lead fouling in the bore, extending barrel life and maintaining consistency shot to shot. Each box contains 20 rounds for field trials or dedicated hunting trips.

This ammunition is purpose-built for hunters and experienced shooters pursuing North American dangerous game—bears, moose, bison—where one-shot stopping power is essential. The wide flat nose geometry is deliberate: it maximizes energy transfer through soft tissue and bone structure while the hardcast construction prevents fragmentation and deformation that would reduce penetration. Recoil is substantial; shooters should verify rifle handling and shooter competency before field deployment. Anyone considering dangerous game hunting or extreme defensive scenarios should treat .500 S&W with the precision and respect it demands.
