Product Description
Hornady manufactures its Dangerous Game Series ammunition with only the finest components, under strict quality control measures. These classic bullet designs are tailored to meet the needs of serious safari hunters and those pursuing large game for outdoor and sporting activities worldwide.
Hornady utilises techniques and processes that rival hand loads, with the ultimate goal of making every cartridge accurate, effective, and dependable for consistent performance in the field.
- High Performance Hornady Bullets: Each Dangerous Game Series load is topped with an effective projectile, ranging from InterLock SP-RP bullets to the heavy-hitting DGS and DGX bullets.
- InterLock SP-RP Bullets: SP-RP stands for "spire point - recoil proof." This design eliminates the problem of tip deformation during recoil. These heavy-duty InterLock bullets combine rugged design with improved trajectory, ideal for dangerous game rifles.
- DGS Bullets: The DGS non-expanding bullet is recommended for thick-skinned game. Its tough copper-clad steel jacket is designed to provide maximum penetration from all angles on thick-skinned and heavy-boned animals.
- DGX Bonded Bullets: DGX Bonded bullets are built to the same profile as the corresponding DGS (Dangerous Game Solid) bullets but expand to 1 1/2 to 2 times their bullet diameter. They feature a copper-clad steel jacket bonded to a lead core to provide limited, controlled expansion with deep penetration and high weight retention. Bonding the jacket to the core prevents separation from high-energy impact on tough material like bone, ensuring the bullet stays together for deep expansion.
- Powder: Powders are carefully matched to each load to ensure optimum pressure and velocity, and to regulate in double rifles. Some Dangerous Game Series loads feature Superformance propellant technology.
- Case and Primer: Like all Hornady ammunition, the Dangerous Game ammunition uses the highest quality cases and primers available. Consistent components translate to consistent shooting in the field.
