Double Tap's DT Hunter line brings a purpose-built option for those who demand more from their .357 Magnum. Built around a 180-grain wide flat-nose hardcast bullet with a gas check, this load delivers the kind of performance that separates field-ready ammunition from run-of-the-mill plinking rounds.
The hardcast design means the bullet won't deform when it hits. That refusal to expand is exactly what you want when you're dealing with thick-skinned game or need to punch through brush and barriers. The wide flat-nose profile creates devastating wound channels while the gas check helps seal the bore and improve velocity consistency. Velocity runs 1300 fps from a 4-inch barrel, with longer barrels like a 6-inch pulling around 1425 fps. Muzzle energy sits at 676 foot-pounds, and even at 50 yards from a 4-inch gun you're still carrying 557 foot-pounds downrange.
Double Tap has built its reputation on ammunition that ships the way it's supposed to. Every round gets inspected before it leaves their door. You get quality brass that's reloadable, consistent ballistics, and ammunition built for real-world performance rather than marketing hype. This isn't the kind of load that cuts corners.
Each box contains 20 rounds loaded in brass cases that are suitable for reloading once you've fired them. This is serious ammunition for serious applications, whether you're working woods protection or hunting medium to large game from your revolver.
The 180-grain hardcast bullet is built to maintain its shape on impact rather than expand, which allows it to penetrate deeper through heavy material. The gas check helps seal the bore for consistent velocity, and the wide flat-nose design creates a larger wound channel than traditional hollow-point designs. This makes it purpose-built for hunting and woods protection rather than general target shooting.
Yes, this ammunition fires in any standard .357 Magnum revolver. It's designed specifically for handguns and will function reliably in revolvers like the Ruger GP-100, S&W 686, and similar platforms. Keep in mind that 180-grain loads generate noticeably more recoil than lighter .357 loads, so make sure your revolver is a full-sized model rather than a snub-nose for comfort and control.
Yes, the brass cases are reloadable. Double Tap loads their ammunition in quality brass that will hold up to multiple reloading cycles, making these rounds a better value if you're a hand loader. Just follow standard reloading practices for .357 Magnum when you reload them.
The extra weight and hardcast design give you better penetration and more downrange energy than lighter 158-grain factory loads. The 180-grain bullet also has better sectional density, which means it tends to hold together through heavy bone and thick hide. For hunting medium to large game at closer distances, this load delivers measurably more stopping power than standard .357 offerings.
