20rds – 458 SOCOM Underwood 302gr. Xtreme Penetrator Ammo

Underwood Ammo Not Applicable Solid Copper Ammo Details

Hoo-ee. Any deer, buck or threat that finds itself on the wrong side of this Underwood cartridge is sure in for a hard time. And that’s not just because it is the 458 SOCOM – one of the thumpiest thumpers of all time. It is also loaded with the 302 grain Xtreme Penetrator.

The Xtreme Penetrator is lead free – solid copper – a monolithic, which means it’s nontoxic and allowed for hunting wherever lead isn’t. The Xtreme Penetrator’s all-copper composition also makes it inherently tough, and therefore capable of staying almost completely intact as it lives up to its name in full.

The Xtreme Penetrator doesn’t just deal superior damage to its target by tunneling deeply into it. Its uniquely shaped nose profile transfers crippling energy to the target on impact, and then proceeds to use its radial grooves to pressurize soft tissues while simultaneously ejecting them outward at high velocity. The product is an enormous energy spike, a gaping permanent wound cavity, and over twice the penetration of a traditional hollow point.

Whether you’re defending or hunting, you’ll appreciate Underwood’s low-flash propellant. It produces very little light out of a rifle or SBR’s muzzle, thus protecting the shooter against temporarily blinding himself in the dark. No nickel plating on these rounds’ cases, though they are still every bit as reloadable as Underwood’s usual factory-fresh shells.
