Description
Could you load Federal’s HammerDown 44 Magnum ammo into a revolver and expect to be pleased with the outcome? Unquestionably yes! But to really appreciate this ammo, you’ll want to load it in a fine lever-action rifle like Henry makes. Heck, Federal even consulted with the old American icon while designing this 44 Mag ammo to make certain it functions smooth as silk in a lever action!
This round’s case geometry is optimized to support effortless feeding in a lever-action rifle. The strong and chamfered case is also nickel plated, reducing how much friction a lever-action feeding mechanism must endure while doing its job. The bullet is optimized for the best terminal performance out of a rifle as well. Again, a handgun will not disappoint, but this is without question the ammo to beat if you hunt like a cowboy.
That ain’t just any ordinary bullet, either. The 270 grain soft point features a bonded jacket. Very little can happen to a bonded jacket that will pry it away from its core, so this bullet retains its weight and remains intact throughout penetration. Consider that a soft point also flattens out to produce a gaping wound channel and you’ll see why whitetail don’t stand a chance against this round. Packs over 1,150 ft lbs of energy at 100 yards, which is well beyond satisfactory for an ethical kill!
