25rds – 357 Magnum Hornady Backcountry Defense 165gr. DGH Ammo Details

Some days you eat the bear. Some days, the bear eats you. Hornady loaded this Backcountry Defense series 357 Magnum ammunition in the great state of Nebraska so you can avoid the second type of days.

This cartridge’s bullet doesn’t just strike hard. As a Dangerous Game Handgun (DGH), it also penetrates extra deeply. Its protected point embeds the rim of its jacket into its extremely dense lead core, thus preventing the DGH from widening or otherwise deforming as it excavates a long wound column into its target. That greatly enhances the bullet’s ability to reach the offending animal’s vital organs. With good shot placement, no North American animal can withstand an encounter with this ammo.

The DGH features a jacketed base, which enables it to avoid emitting lead smoke during ignition. That’s in service of maintaining your visual on the big angry brute. The DGH is not intended for defense against human threats, however. You would want an expanding bullet during an urban self-defense scenario!
