The Hornady Dangerous Game line in 450 Nitro Express is engineered for the largest and most dangerous game on earth. Each cartridge is built around a heavy 500 gr DGX Bonded flat-nose bullet that delivers a muzzle velocity of 2150 fps and muzzle energy of 4927 ft lbs. That is the authority and penetration needed to tackle Africa's Big Five or the biggest game wherever you hunt.
The DGX (Dangerous Game eXpanding) Bonded bullet is designed to initiate controlled expansion on impact, with the jacket and lead core locked together to improve weight retention and drive the projectile deeply into the animal. The bullet profile matches the corresponding DGS (Dangerous Game Solid) design but expands to roughly 1-1/2 to 2 times its original diameter on impact, producing a straight, deep penetration track on heavy-bodied game where momentum, wound channel, and reliable bullet construction matter most.
Reloadable brass cases and Hornady's tight quality standards give handloaders and professional hunters consistent pressures, reliable ignition, and the option to reuse the brass. This is a true hunting round, loaded for the kind of work where missed shots and failed bullets are simply not an option.
