Hornady Handgun Hunter ammunition pairs a tough copper-alloy Monoflex bullet with premium cases and powders for deep penetration and reliable expansion on game. 20 rounds per box.
Hornady's Handgun Hunter ammunition represents a significant advancement in handgun hunting capability. This is ammunition designed for hunters who demand performance equal to the challenge of taking game with a handgun.
At the heart of Handgun Hunter is Hornady's Monoflex bullet—a purpose-built projectile engineered specifically for handgun velocities. The bullet is constructed from a tough copper alloy that is significantly harder than pure copper, eliminating the separation issues that plague some monolithic designs.
Key performance characteristics:
The elastomer material in the Monoflex's open cavity works on a simple principle: upon impact, it compresses, then pushes outward to initiate bullet expansion. This design delivers faster, more reliable expansion across a wide range of impact velocities—a critical advantage when hunting with handguns, where velocity variation is greater than with rifles.
Hornady backs the Monoflex bullet with equally serious ammunition components: premium brass cases, reliable primers, and carefully selected powders. The result is ammunition that performs consistently, shot after shot.
Whether you're carrying a backup handgun in bear country or pursuing game with a modern hunting revolver, Handgun Hunter ammunition delivers the penetration and expansion needed for ethical, effective hunting.
