In the realm of powerful cartridges, the .500 S&W Magnum stands as a titan, and Underwood Ammo has crafted an exemplary round for those who demand excellence. This ammunition is new production, ensuring reliability and consistency with every shot.
The cartridge features a formidable 700-grain lead bullet designed to dominate in both hunting and self-defense scenarios. With a diameter of 0.5 inches, this projectile exits the barrel at a remarkable velocity of 1200 feet per second, achieving supersonic speeds that surpass the sound barrier.
This robust performance translates into significant stopping power with a muzzle energy of 2239 foot-pounds. Such energy ensures that whether you are facing down dangerous game or defending against threats, you have confidence in your capability to neutralize effectively.
Each bullet boasts a sectional density (SD) of 0.4, indicating its ability to maintain momentum through resistance—ideal for deep penetration when it matters most. Additionally, while details on ballistic coefficient are generally crucial for stability over distance, rest assured this round maintains consistent accuracy under practical conditions.
The nickel-plated brass case not only enhances durability but also facilitates smooth extraction from chambers—a critical factor during rapid-fire situations or high-stakes environments where reliability cannot be compromised.
This ammunition comes boxed with twenty rounds ready for deployment whenever duty calls. Moreover, it is safe to use in suppressors should stealth become necessary without sacrificing performance.
