We do not hate bears here at BulkAmmo.com. We’d hate to see one get hurt for no good reason. But when push comes to shove, we like our customers a whole lot more, which is why we’re selling 357 Mag ammo designed specifically for defense against bears and other dangerous game.
This cartridge’s 165 grain bullet only superficially resembles a soft point or JHP. It actually a special bullet of Hornady’s own creation: the Dangerous Game Handgun, which features a special protected point that inhibits any and all terminal expansion. This enables the DGH to pierce its target in a straight line, thereby boosting its likelihood of reaching said target’s heart or other vital organ. And because the DGH’s base is jacketed, it cannot belch out thick lead smoke that could have complicated accurate follow-up shots.
Be sure of this: you do not want this ammo for defense in populated areas, where its bullets could over-penetrate the threat and jeopardize innocent bystanders.
