Product Overview
HSM's Bear Load in .44 Magnum delivers serious stopping power with its hefty 305-grain Wide Flat Nose projectile. When you need dependable performance against large game or dangerous predators, this round's substantial mass combined with its 1,260 fps velocity creates the kind of terminal performance that experienced hunters and wilderness guides stake their lives on. The WFN bullet design ensures deep penetration while creating a substantial wound channel.
The brass casing and carefully engineered powder load maintain consistent pressure levels, critical when facing down a charging bear or tracking large game in dense brush. At 1,075 ft-lbs of muzzle energy, this cartridge hits with authority while remaining manageable in quality revolvers. If you're carrying in grizzly country or hunting elk in heavy cover, this load's straight-line penetration and energy retention make it a reliable performer.
This isn't your typical range ammunition - it's purpose-built for serious field use where failure isn't an option. The wide meplat of the WFN bullet transfers energy efficiently on impact, while the robust construction prevents bullet deformation during feeding and recoil. For guides, hunters, and outdoorsmen who demand absolute reliability in their defensive loads, this cartridge delivers the kind of real-world performance that builds confidence when miles from civilization.
