Hornady Backcountry Defense Features The Hornady Backcountry Defense line was built specifically for backcountry encounters where a reliable sidearm round can be the difference between a close call and a tragedy. The DGH bullet design provides maximum penetration and minimal deflection ensuring the round drives straight through dense bone and muscle rather than glancing off. This 500 grain jacketed soft point in .500 SW delivers the momentum needed to reach vital organs on the largest game animals encountered in remote terrain. Hornady s reputation for consistent accurate ammunition backs every round in this lineup. Packaged in reloadable brass cases with boxer primers this load gives handloaders the option to recover and reuse brass after a hunt or range session. Twenty rounds per box keeps a practical supply on hand for sighting in a backcountry sidearm before heading into bear or big game country. For hunters guides and backcountry travelers who carry a large-frame revolver as their last line of defense this Hornady load is purpose built for peace of mind when there is no 911 to call.
