Launching a 400 grain DGS Flat Nose projectile at 2,400fps (731m\/s) with 5,115ft-lbs (6,933J) of muzzle energy, this load delivers the kind of deep, straight-line penetration demanded by thick-skinned dangerous game hunting. Whether you're on a professional hunt in Africa targeting elephant, hippo, or rhino, or working alongside a professional hunter in a capacity that requires the most dependable stopping loads available, the Hornady DGS is a round built to the standard that dangerous game hunting demands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHornady Dangerous Game Series .416 Ruger 400GR 2400FPS DGS FMJ Centrefire Ammo Key Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBullet Type - DGS FMJ Flat Nose:\u003c\/strong\u003e A non-expanding Full Metal Jacket design with a flat nose profile.

This means hunters who run both bullet types can do so with minimal shift in point of aim or point of impact, which is critical for regulated double rifles and hunters who may carry mixed loads.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePowder Charge - Load Regulated for Double Rifles:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hornady carefully matches powder selection to each Dangerous Game load to regulate pressure and velocity, ensuring the ammunition is suitable for use in double rifles where load consistency between barrels is essential.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCasing - Reloadable Brass with Boxer Primer:\u003c\/strong\u003e New production, non-corrosive brass cases with Boxer priming make this ammunition fully reloadable, allowing handloaders to recycle quality brass through the press once the factory load has been fired.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRounds Per Box - 20:\u003c\/strong\u003e Supplied in boxes of 20 rounds under Hornady SKU H82666.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt this level of hunting, ammunition reliability is not a preference, it is a non-negotiable requirement.
