Description
A middle path between a broad flat nose and a hollow point
Choosing a 240-grain .429 bullet should involve more than choosing whichever box is available. Some handloaders want a flat-nose profile but also want a mechanically different option from the broad, penetration-oriented Rhino or the hollow-point Razorback.
The 240-grain Gold Country Badger fills that middle position. Its serrated flat nose gives the handloader a distinct construction choice while retaining a 240-grain weight familiar to .44 Magnum users.
This listing is for 50 component bullets. Cases, primers, powder and load data are not included. The bullets are hand swaged in small batches, made to order and normally ship within seven business days.
Choose by construction, not a promised outcome
- Rhino: broad exposed flat nose and the strongest penetration-oriented bias.
- Badger: serrated flat nose occupying the middle of the family.
- Razorback: serrated hollow point and the family’s more deformation-oriented choice.
These distinctions describe bullet geometry and design intent. They do not guarantee expansion, penetration, feeding, accuracy or a particular hunting or defensive result. The finished load, firearm, velocity and conditions determine behavior.
