The .500 S&W Magnum is America's most powerful factory handgun cartridge, and HSM Pro Pistol makes one of the smartest loading choices available. This ammunition pairs 400-grain Sierra jacketed soft point bullets with quality brass cases and meticulous assembly to give you the stopping power you need when the game is large and the terrain is unforgiving.
Sierra bullets are engineered specifically for hunting applications, and the soft point design here does exactly what you want it to do: expand reliably while maintaining sufficient penetration to reach vital organs in heavy-bodied game. The Power Jacket design ensures expansion happens uniformly along serrated lines, which means better weight retention and more consistent energy transfer where it matters most. At this bullet weight, you're looking at ammunition that performs as a legitimate all-arounder for North American big game.
HSM has spent decades building a reputation for thoughtfully designed handgun loads, and the Pro Pistol line represents the company's commitment to the resurgence of serious handgun hunting. Each load is calibrated specifically for its caliber, which means you're not shooting ammunition designed for one revolver and hoping it works in yours. The brass cases are reloadable boxer-primed brass, so if you're the type who feeds your own, you'll appreciate having these empties in your stash. Every round goes through the same manufacturing process that's made HSM a trusted name among hunters who won't compromise on reliability.
You need ammunition that performs under field conditions, not just at the range. This is hunting ammunition, plain and simple. Twenty rounds per box means you've got enough to pattern your setup, dial in your shooting, and carry a meaningful supply into the field. The semi-jacketed soft point construction gives you the ballistic performance that separates an ethical hunt from a miss or worse. Non-corrosive primers and consistent powder charges mean each shot behaves like the one before it.
Yes. This load is built specifically for hunting applications with a 400-grain Sierra jacketed soft point that combines deep penetration with controlled expansion. The .500 S&W Magnum itself is effective on North American big game including elk, moose, and bear. HSM's careful load development ensures the bullet performs across a range of velocities and distances common in hunting scenarios.
Absolutely. Each round comes in reloadable brass with a non-corrosive boxer primer, so you can collect and reload these cases if you hand-load your own ammunition. This makes the 500SW9N a practical choice for shooters who want to maximize their investment and develop custom loads for their specific revolver.
The 400-grain weight hits a sweet spot between two competing demands: it's heavy enough to deliver genuine penetration on tough-skinned game, but it doesn't push recoil into unmanageable territory the way heavier loads do. It's considered an excellent all-around weight for hunters who want performance without turning every shot into a memorable event at the range.
The jacketed soft point (JSP) design expands when it hits game, creating a larger wound channel, while still maintaining enough structural integrity to penetrate deep enough to reach vitals. This makes it ideal for hunting. Other designs like hollow points prioritize rapid expansion, while hard cast bullets are built to penetrate thick hide and bone without deformation—different tools for different jobs.
