Hornady Custom 500 S&W Mag 300gr FTX Ammunition - 20 Rounds

The Hornady Custom 500 S&W Magnum delivers devastating terminal performance with 300-grain FTX bullets engineered for maximum expansion and penetration. This premium handgun ammunition transforms the massive .500 caliber into a precision hunting and defensive round capable of taking down large game at extended ranges.

What Makes This Different

The patented Flex Tip technology eliminates clogging in hollow point cavities that plague traditional expanding bullets. While conventional hollow points can plug with clothing or tissue, the polymer tip initiates reliable expansion every time. Each cartridge generates over 2,600 foot-pounds of muzzle energy, placing it among the most powerful production handgun rounds available.

Key Features

• 300-grain FTX (Flex Tip eXpanding) bullets with polymer tip technology
• Nickel-plated brass cases resist corrosion and enhance extraction
• Premium propellants deliver consistent velocities across temperature ranges
• Controlled expansion creates wound channels up to 2x bullet diameter
• Deep penetration capabilities for large game and barrier penetration
• Match-grade components ensure sub-MOA accuracy potential
• 20 rounds per box with reloadable brass cases

Field testing demonstrates consistent 1,800+ fps velocities from 8.5-inch barrels with devastating terminal ballistics on game animals. The heavy bullet weight maintains energy downrange while the FTX design ensures expansion at velocities as low as 1,600 fps. Weather-sealed primers and powder charges perform reliably in extreme temperatures from -40°F to 140°F.
