Underwood .44 Special 125gr Xtreme Defender Ammo, 20-Round Box

Underwood .44 Special ammunition loads a lightweight 125-grain Xtreme Defender bullet for revolver owners who want a fast-moving, controllable defensive round in a caliber known for heavier, slower loads. Underwood machines the Xtreme Defender from solid copper with a sharp-shouldered, flat-nosed profile engineered to cut a wide wound channel through fluid displacement rather than expansion. The lighter bullet weight lets the load reach higher velocity while keeping felt recoil more manageable than a traditional heavy .44 Special loading. In handgun ammunition for a .44 Special revolver carried for defense, this is a modern, fast-handling option.
