The 44 Special has had a revival thanks to modern carry revolvers, and a 180 grain hollow point is a good fit for them. This listing is PMC Bronze 44 S&W Special 180 grain jacketed hollow point ammo, MPN 44SB, sold as a 500 round case.
PMC rates this load at 980 fps with 383 ft-lbs of muzzle energy. The 180 grain jacketed hollow point is lighter than the traditional 240 and 246 grain 44 Special bullets, which keeps recoil moderate in lighter revolvers while the hollow point is designed to expand. It is a practical choice for revolver owners who want a hollow point for home defense or carry and also want enough of the same load to practice with. The jacket limits leading in the bore compared with plain lead bullets.
This ammunition fits revolvers and lever guns chambered in 44 Special, also called 44 S&W Special, including the Charter Arms Bulldog, Smith and Wesson Model 69 Combat Magnum and Model 24, Ruger GP100 and Super Blackhawk in 44 Special, Taurus 856 Executive in 44, and Colt Anaconda. It also fits any 44 Magnum revolver or rifle, since a 44 Magnum chamber safely accepts 44 Special. A common question is whether 44 Magnum can be fired in a 44 Special revolver. No. Never fire 44 Magnum in a gun marked only 44 Special. Another common question is whether 44 Special is a good carry round. Many revolver owners carry it because it delivers big-bore performance with far less recoil than 44 Magnum.
PMC 44SB is new production ammunition, not reloads, loaded in South Korea. Each round uses a reloadable brass case with a boxer primer and is non-corrosive. This case comes in factory packaging as 20 boxes of 25 rounds for a total of 500 rounds of 44 Special 180 grain JHP, enough to practice, test, and carry the same lot.

Wanted lighter loads to burn through at the range. Already shot 125 rounds without any duds or issues. Even with the additional shipping costs and going through a local FFL, the price was excellent.

Excellent communication and fast turn around. They already had my FFL in their system. They will be my go-to from more ammo in the future!

Really enjoy this .44 special round much more so than the magnum load. For me, better control and grouping running this ammo through my S&W 629

Nice smooth shooting option for my ruger blackhawk compared to the high recoil of the 44mag. Load.
