This .44 Special round pairs a 200 grain hard cast wadcutter bullet with a nickel-plated brass case, delivering straightforward, proven performance. The hard cast construction means the bullet won't deform easily, maintaining a consistent nose profile through the target and delivering dependable penetration. That flat-nose wadcutter design cuts a full-diameter hole, which is the whole point of the round whether you're using it for self-defense or field work.
The Black Cherry polymer coating on the bullet keeps lead fouling to a minimum, so you won't spend extra time cleaning the bore after putting rounds downrange. Underwood uses flash-suppressed powder in this load, which helps preserve your night vision if you ever need to shoot in low-light conditions. The nickel-plated brass cases feed smoothly through revolvers and resist corrosion better than standard brass, plus they're reloadable for folks who want to reload.
At 1000 fps muzzle velocity with 444 ft-lbs of energy, this is a subsonic round with modest recoil. It's new production, non-corrosive ammunition in boxer-primed cases, and comes in boxes of 20 rounds. The round balances controllability with the stopping power of a .44 caliber, making it a sensible choice for anyone running a .44 Special revolver who wants reliable ammunition they can trust.
The Black Cherry coating is a polymer-based compound that protects against gas cutting and reduces lead fouling in the barrel. It has better thermal stability than previous coatings and provides excellent wear and abrasion resistance, which means cleaner shooting and less maintenance.
Yes. These use boxer-primed, nickel-plated brass cases, which are completely reloadable. After you fire them, you can resize and reload the cases just like any other brass ammunition.
The .44 Special cartridge will chamber and fire in most .44 Magnum revolvers since the Magnum is built on a longer case that accommodates the shorter Special cartridge. You get softer recoil and easier handling while still delivering a full-diameter wadcutter impact. Always verify your specific firearm is compatible and safe to use with this load.
Hard cast bullets are alloyed with metals like tin and antimony, making them significantly harder than pure lead. This prevents the bullet from deforming on impact, which helps it maintain a consistent path through soft tissue and bone. In contrast, soft cast bullets expand upon impact for wider wound channels but may deform faster.
Subsonic loads offer gentler recoil and muzzle flash while still delivering the penetration of a flat-nose wadcutter design. For defensive use from compact revolvers or extended shooting sessions, the lower recoil is a practical advantage. The full-diameter hole from the wadcutter nose profile makes the velocity trade-off worth it in many applications.
Yes. Underwood uses state-of-the-art testing equipment and field tests their ammunition in real firearms that customers typically own, under real-world conditions. This means you get ammunition that's been verified to work before it ships.
