Hornady 4748 .474 Caliber 500 Grain DGS Dangerous Game Solid Bullets, 50 Count

Hornady 4748 DGS bullets are designed for reloaders who demand dependable penetration and weight retention for dangerous game applications. Built with an aggressive, wide flat nose, these .474 caliber bullets deliver strong energy transfer on impact while helping resist deformation and deflection when encountering thick hide, dense muscle, and hard bone. The DGS profile is engineered for controlled, hard-hitting performance in demanding field conditions.
The bullet incorporates a very hard, high-antimony lead core enclosed by a copper-clad steel jacket. This construction helps the projectile maintain its integrity and retain overall weight during penetration. The steel jacket provides a durable exterior, while the copper coating supports consistent handling and loading. A cannelure is included to assist with secure bullet seating during the reloading process.
Each Hornady 4748 box contains 50 reloading bullets weighing 500 grains each. With a .290 ballistic coefficient and .316 sectional density, these dangerous game solids are intended for reloaders assembling .470 caliber cartridges and seeking a robust bullet design for specialized hunting applications. As reloading components, these bullets should be used only with carefully developed loads and in accordance with reliable reloading data and applicable safety practices.
