Description

Magtech .500 S&W 325gr FMJ Flat (Magtech part no. 500D) is a full metal jacket load for revolver shooters who want to put rounds downrange in the largest chambering many of them own. Magtech lists a 325-grain FMJ Flat bullet in a brass case with a muzzle velocity of 1805 fps from a 10-inch test barrel. The maker says full metal jacket projectiles are the ideal choice for training, target shooting and general range use. This is the FMJ option in the .500 S&W line, so it stands apart from the soft point loads Magtech sells at the same weight. A box holds 20 rounds.
