Hornady Handgun Hunter 500 S&W 300gr Monoflex

Hornady Handgun Hunter: Purpose-Built for Serious Handgun Hunting

Handgun hunting demands ammunition as tough and reliable as the conditions and game require. Hornady's Handgun Hunter line delivers exactly that—a cartridge engineered from the ground up for hunters who demand performance when it matters most.

The Monoflex Advantage

At the heart of this load lies Hornady's Monoflex bullet, a departure from traditional hollow point design. Manufactured from a tough copper alloy rather than lead, the Monoflex bullet offers several distinct advantages:

• Deep Penetration: The solid copper-alloy construction resists separation and deformation, driving deep into game for reliable performance on larger species.
• Weight Retention: The bullet retains 95% of its weight through impact, maximizing energy transfer and terminal effect.
• Consistent Performance: Unlike traditional designs, the Monoflex performs reliably across a wide range of velocities.

Elastomer-Enhanced Expansion

What sets the Monoflex apart is its unique elastomer material embedded in the bullet's open cavity. Upon impact, this elastomer compresses, then actively pushes outward to initiate rapid expansion—faster than conventional hollow point designs. This two-stage expansion creates a larger wound channel while maintaining the penetration necessary for ethical, effective hunting.

Premium Components Throughout

Hornady combines the Monoflex bullet with premium cases, primers, and propellants to ensure consistent, reliable performance in the field. This attention to component quality reflects decades of experience developing ammunition for serious hunters and shooters.

The Right Choice for Handgun Hunters

Whether you're hunting large game or need a reliable backup handgun load, Hornady Handgun Hunter ammunition delivers the performance you need when the moment counts.
