How times have changed! A handgun cartridge with the title of “OUTDOORSMAN” would historically be a revolver cartridge. However, these days many folks carry “street” or “home defense” pistols when they want to take a hike in the woods or go camping. Due to customer requests, here is our new “Outdoorsman” 200gr. hard cast flat nosed 40 S&W standard pressure load. We’ve designed this deep penetrating load for use against wild animals where large bones such as a black bears shoulders or skull may need to be penetrated. This ammunition may also have tactical applications in situations where you may wish to defeat soft cover such as stick frame walls, car doors, windshields, sofas or whatever cover a bad guy may have jumped behind. Expect roughly 30 inches of straight-line penetration in flesh and bone.
By using a hard cast bullet, we are able to gain velocity over jacketed bullets as hard cast alloy is much slicker than typical bullet jacket material. Hence more velocity can be developed with less pressure.
This is a standard pressure cartridge which means it operates within SAMMI specifications for pressure. Therefore, it is safe for use in all (“all” means all) 40 S&W chambered pistols.
We are utilizing a flash suppressed powder so the shooter will not be blinded by his/her gunfire. This matters, as most wildlife as well as the criminal element, become much more active in low light.
This ammunition is new production, non-corrosive, in boxer primed, reloadable brass cases.
