Underwood 44 Special 255gr Lead Semi-Wadcutter with Gas Check
This is serious ammunition for serious shooters. Underwood's 44 Special loading pairs a 255-grain hard cast lead semi-wadcutter bullet with their advanced Black Cherry polymer coating—a significant upgrade over traditional lead bullet coatings.
Why Black Cherry Coating Matters
The Black Cherry coating is engineered for thermal stability and durability. It prevents direct lead-to-bore contact, virtually eliminating lead fouling that plagues shooters using uncoated cast bullets. The polymer compound resists gas cutting and abrasion far better than conventional coatings, extending barrel life and maintaining accuracy.
