HSM Bear Load 357 Magnum 180gr Lead Round Nose 50rd Box

The HSM Bear Load 357 Magnum delivers maximum stopping power with 180-grain lead round nose flat point bullets engineered for dangerous game encounters. This premium hunting ammunition combines deep penetration with controlled expansion to handle the toughest situations in bear country.

What Makes This Different

Unlike standard 357 Magnum rounds, HSM Bear Load ammunition features heavy 180-grain bullets specifically designed for maximum penetration on large, thick-skinned game. The lead round nose flat point construction creates a larger wound channel than traditional round nose bullets while maintaining straight-line penetration through heavy bone and muscle. These cartridges generate significantly higher energy transfer than lighter hunting loads, delivering approximately 1,200 foot-pounds of energy at the muzzle.

Key Features

• 180-grain lead round nose flat point bullets for deep penetration
• Premium brass cases with consistent powder charges
• Muzzle velocity of approximately 1,200 feet per second
• 50 rounds per box, 10 boxes per case (500 total rounds)
• Compatible with all 357 Magnum and 357 Maximum firearms
• Lead construction reduces barrel wear compared to jacketed bullets
• Flat point design increases wound channel diameter

Field performance demonstrates reliable expansion and penetration through heavy hide, fat, and bone typical of large game animals. The 180-grain bullet weight provides superior sectional density compared to lighter 357 Magnum loads, maintaining velocity and energy at extended ranges. This ammunition functions reliably in revolvers and lever-action rifles, making it versatile for both handgun and carbine applications in wilderness environments.
