SHOP CASE KNIVESHornady Backcountry Defense for the .454 Casull is built for situations where failure isn’t an option. The 300‑grain DGH load is engineered to deliver maximum straight‑line penetration, dependable feeding, and clean follow‑up shots when you’re miles from help. Hornady designed this round with serious fieldwork in mind: heavy‑for‑caliber performance, protected‑point construction to limit deflection, and a jacketed profile that avoids lead smoke so you keep sight picture for fast, accurate follow‑ups.
The DGH (Dangerous Game Handgun) bullet is the core of this load. A protected point locks the nose to the core, preserving integrity on impact and driving energy deep where it matters. Unlike hard‑cast projectiles, the jacketed DGH produces no lead vapor at the muzzle, so you won’t lose your view of the target when you need to make another shot. That combination of penetration and visibility makes this a go‑to choice for backcountry defense, dangerous game encounters, and any application where deep, dependable performance is required.
Hornady builds these rounds with practical reliability in mind. New production, non‑corrosive boxer‑primed brass cases and carefully selected powders ensure consistent pressures and reliable ignition. The cartridge dimensions and cannelure-friendly seating promote secure crimping and consistent feeding across a variety of firearms, including heavy‑frame revolvers often used in rugged environments. And because these rounds are reloadable, backcountry-minded shooters can tailor loads if they choose.
Whether you carry a stout revolver for remote hunting or you want a defensive load that won’t quit when the terrain gets tough, the Hornady .454 Casull 300 GR DGH brings proven terminal performance and manufacturing quality to the field. It’s built to do one job—and do it with authority.
