Description
The DoubleTap 454 Casull 400gr Hardcast load is built for shooters who want more from their 454 Casull than typical factory ammunition delivers.

This is the heaviest 454 Casull load DoubleTap offers, built for the largest and most dangerous game a handgun hunter will face.

Practice with lighter 45 Colt loads in the same revolver to build skill, then confirm your point of impact with full-power 454 Casull rounds from a steady rest before you head afield.
Buying ammunition by the box from the same production lot keeps velocity and point of impact consistent from one range trip to the next. Keep a record of the load you carry, check your ammunition for dents or loose bullets from time to time, and rotate your carry rounds so the ones in your firearm stay fresh. These simple habits help you get the full performance DoubleTap builds into every cartridge.
Before you trust any new load, fire enough rounds through your firearm to confirm it feeds, fires and ejects reliably and that the point of impact matches your sights. Full-power loads produce more recoil and muzzle blast than typical range ammo, so practice with the DoubleTap 454 Casull 400gr Hardcast until you are comfortable with it, and store the rest in a cool, dry place in the original box.

Why Choose DoubleTap 454 Casull Ammo
A heavy, non-expanding hardcast bullet keeps its full weight and shape, so it can break heavy bone and reach the vitals on the toughest animals. DoubleTap rates this 400 grain load at 1400 fps and 1741 foot-pounds from a 7.5 inch barrel, about 1675 fps from a 20 inch Puma 92 lever-action and about 1125 fps from a short 2.5 inch Ruger Alaskan.
When you compare 454 casull hunting ammo, remember that heavy bullets at these pressures produce serious recoil. This 454 casull 400 grain hardcast load is best suited to sturdy revolvers like the Ruger Super Redhawk and Alaskan, the Freedom Arms Model 83 and the Taurus Raging Hunter, and to lever-action carbines chambered in 454 Casull.
DoubleTap Ammunition is an American company known for loading popular calibers to their full potential, especially the 10mm Auto and other magnum handgun rounds. Doubletap 454 casull ammo is loaded with quality components and brass cases, and many shooters choose it when they want the performance a caliber was designed for rather than a reduced-power range load.
Hunters, guides and anyone who travels in grizzly country with a 454 Casull will find this load a confident choice when maximum penetration comes first. Always confirm your firearm is chambered for 454 Casull, wear eye and ear protection, and follow all federal, state and local laws.
