Hornady manufactures Dangerous Game Series ammunition with only the finest components, under strict quality control measures. Our classic bullet designs are tailored to meet the needs of the serious safari hunter. We use techniques and processes that rival hand loads, with the ultimate goal of making every cartridge accurate, deadly and dependable.
- High performance Hornady bullets - 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
- 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
- DGX bonded bullets - they feature a copper-clad steel jacket bonded to a lead core to provide limited, controlled expansion with deep penetration and high weight retention
- DGX bonded bullets - 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
- 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
- 24 inches test barrel
