Description

The .500 S&W Magnum is in a class of its own when it comes to handgun power, and Magtech's 400-grain load puts that capability in your hands with proven reliability. This cartridge was designed from the ground up to be a hunting round, capable of taking North American big game and then some. At 1608 fps and 2297 foot-pounds of energy, this is the kind of ballistic performance that demands respect and delivers results.

Magtech 500 Build and Construction

Magtech manufactures its own components from start to finish, which means every stage of production gets the same quality control. Each round is assembled with reloadable brass cases, clean-burning propellants, and a large rifle primer sized for consistent ignition even in extreme conditions. The semi-jacketed soft point bullet design provides controlled expansion that works well for hunting applications where jurisdictions restrict hollow point ammunition. Hand-inspection throughout manufacturing keeps dimensions and performance consistent from round to round.

Real-World Performance with Heavy Magnums

The flat-nose soft point design is nothing new, but it's proven itself countless times on game. The 400-grain bullet weight sits in a sweet spot for this cartridge, offering serious penetration while maintaining expansion characteristics. This isn't a round you're shooting for casual plinking, though range training with these will sharpen your technique and build familiarity with what your revolver can do. The reloadable brass means long-term shooters can stretch their investment further.

Purpose-Built for the Task

Magtech engineered these rounds specifically for the heavy-recoil revolvers that chamber the .500 S&W, and it shows in the attention to detail. Whether you're training at the range or preparing for a hunting trip into big game country, the consistency and reliability these rounds deliver takes one variable out of the equation so you can focus on everything else.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between a semi-jacketed soft point and a hollow point bullet?

The soft point design expands when it hits, but stays intact better than a hollow point and is suitable where hollow points are restricted. The flat nose profile aids penetration on thick-skinned game. The jacket partially covers the lead core, giving you controlled expansion without aggressive fragmentation.

Can I reload Magtech .500 S&W brass cases?

Yes, the brass is specifically designed to be reloadable. Magtech manufactures its own components, so the brass quality is consistent with the rest of their ammunition. With the cost per round on magnum ammunition, reloading makes sense for regular shooters.

Is 400 grains the best bullet weight for the .500 S&W?

The .500 S&W performs well with a range of weights from 300 grains up to 500+ grains. The 400-grain load is a solid middle ground that balances penetration, expansion, and recoil. Heavier bullets offer deeper penetration on larger game, while lighter loads produce less recoil.

What game is this ammunition suitable for?

At 2297 foot-pounds, this load will take any North American big game. It's commonly used on hogs, deer, and bear at close to moderate distances. The soft point design makes it suitable in areas where hollow points are restricted, while still delivering the expansion needed for humane kills.
