A different 250-grain answer for the handloader comparing nose designs

Choosing a .452 bullet is not only a question of weight. The Badger gives handloaders a serrated flat-nose construction to compare with the Rhino’s wide flat nose and the Razorback’s hollow-point geometry without leaving the familiar 250-grain class.

This listing is for 50 component bullets. Cases, primers, powder and load data are not included. These bullets are hand swaged in small batches, made to order and normally ship within seven business days.

Why choose the 250-grain Badger

The Badger uses a serrated copper jacket, exposed-lead flat nose, flat base and cannelure. It is the controlled-crush choice within Gold Country’s 250-grain .452 comparison family. That construction does not guarantee feeding, accuracy, deformation, penetration or a particular field result; the complete cartridge, firearm, velocity and impact conditions determine performance.
