The Speer 4461 DeepCurl ammunition delivers controlled expansion and deep penetration for serious hunting applications. This 44 caliber cartridge features Speer's proprietary DeepCurl technology that bonds the jacket to the lead core, preventing separation during impact.
What Makes This Different
DeepCurl bonding technology sets this ammunition apart from standard soft point designs by mechanically locking the copper jacket to the lead core through a specialized plating process. Unlike conventional soft points that can separate upon impact, DeepCurl bullets maintain structural integrity while expanding to nearly twice their original diameter. This bonded construction delivers 95% weight retention even through heavy bone and dense tissue.
