505 CAL .505 525 GR DGX (505 GIBBS)

Product Code: H5050

In the most dangerous hunting situations, you need a bullet that performs every time, no matter what the circumstance. Hornady® DGX® (Dangerous Game eXpanding) and DGS® (Dangerous Game Solid) bullets are constructed of copper clad steel and a high antimony lead core. The DGX® bullet incorporates the patented InterLock® feature that locks the core and jacket together, improving retained weight of the expanded bullet. Each caliber utilizes the same profile for both the DGX® and DGS® bullets, offering uniformity, which is ideal when shooting both bullet types through the same firearm.

1. FLAT NOSE
The flat nose aids in expansion and straight penetration, reducing possible deflections.
2. SERRATED NOSE SECTION
The serrated nose section of the jacket and the sidewall thickness profile give the ultimate combination of controlled expansion, weight retention and depth of penetration.
3. COPPER CLAD STEEL JACKET
The heavy copper clad steel jacket is 0.098" thick and penetrates deeply through hide, muscle and bone.
4. INTERLOCK® RING
Patented InterLock® ring locks the core and jacket together, improving retained weight of the expanded bullet.
