Underwood 44 Special 245gr FMJ Flat Nose Ammunition

Underwood 44 Special 245gr FMJ Flat Nose

This is serious ammunition for serious purposes. Underwood's 44 Special load pairs a 245-grain full metal jacket flat nose bullet with nickel-plated brass cases and non-corrosive Boxer primers—everything you need for reliable performance and easy reloading.

Ballistic Performance

• Velocity: 950 feet per second
• Muzzle Energy: 491 foot-pounds
• Bullet Construction: Copper-lead, full metal jacket with flat nose profile
• Sectional Density: 0.190

Why Flat Nose Design Matters

Unlike round nose bullets, the flat nose profile maintains nose-forward orientation through dense material. This geometry delivers superior penetration—essential whether you're hunting wild hog, black bear, or relying on this round for personal defense. The non-expanding FMJ construction ensures consistent, deep penetration through heavy bone and muscle.

Case Quality

Nickel-plated brass offers genuine advantages over traditional brass. The nickel plating resists corrosion, improves feeding reliability across all firearm actions, and simplifies cleanup during reloading. Your cases won't tarnish in storage or when exposed to moisture and leather.

Practical Considerations

• Subsonic Performance: Travels below the speed of sound, ideal for suppressed firearms
• Suppressor Safe: Approved for use with sound suppressors
• Reloadable: Boxer-primed brass cases ready for the handloader
• Lead Content: Contains lead; handle responsibly
• Quantity: 50 rounds per box

This is ammunition built for hunters and defensive shooters who understand that penetration and reliability matter more than expansion.
