Product Description
In the most dangerous hunting situations, you need a bullet that performs every time, no matter what the circumstance. The Hornady® DGX® (Dangerous Game™ Expanding) bullet is constructed of copper-clad steel and a high-antimony lead core.
The DGX® bullet incorporates our patented InterLock® feature that locks the core and jacket together, improving retained weight of the expanded bullet. Each caliber utilises the same profile for both the DGX® and DGS® bullets, offering uniformity, which is ideal when shooting both bullet types through the same firearm.
From the InterLock® SP-RP bullets to the heavy-hitting DGS® and DGX® bullets, each Dangerous Game™ Series load is topped with a deadly projectile.
InterLock® SP-RP Bullets
SP-RP stands for “spire point – recoil proof,” and the design of this bullet eliminates the problem of tip deformation during recoil. These heavy-duty InterLock® bullets combine rugged design with improved trajectory in dangerous game rifles.
DGS® Bullets
The DGS® non-expanding bullet is recommended for thick-skinned game such as elephant, rhino and hippo. Its tough copper clad steel jacket is designed to provide maximum penetration from all angles on thick-skinned and heavy boned dangerous game animals.
DGX® Bullets
The DGX® is an expanding bullet that incorporates all the features of the DGS® bullet along with a redesigned flat meplat for straight penetration, maximum energy transfer and devastating results.
Powder
Powders are carefully matched to each load to ensure optimum pressure and velocity, and to regulate in double rifles. Some of our Dangerous Game™ Series loads feature Superformance® propellant technology.
Case and Primer
Like all Hornady® ammunition, our Dangerous Game™ ammunition uses the highest quality cases and primers available. Consistent components translate to consistent shooting in the field.
