The Grizzly Ammo GC5NE2 delivers devastating stopping power for dangerous game hunting with premium 570-grain Triple Shock X bullets. This 500 Nitro Express ammunition combines traditional big-bore performance with modern bullet technology for reliable expansion and deep penetration on Africa's largest game animals.
What Makes This Different
Triple Shock X bullets feature three cutting petals that create massive wound channels while retaining 99% of their original weight. Unlike conventional soft-point bullets that may fragment on heavy bone, these solid copper projectiles maintain structural integrity through the toughest encounters. The controlled expansion design ensures maximum energy transfer while providing the deep straight-line penetration required for ethical kills on elephant, cape buffalo, and other thick-skinned game.
