Hornady Backcountry Defense Ammunition ($NA)

When you’re deep in bear country, your sidearm is only as good as the ammo you load it with. Hornady Backcountry Defense is engineered for serious protection, featuring the DGH (Dangerous Game Handgun) bullet designed for deep, straight-line penetration with zero deflection. Offered in heavy-for-caliber loads — from 138-grain 9mm +P and 165-grain .357 Mag to 200-grain 10mm Auto and up through .44 Mag and 500 S&W — this stuff hits hard and punches through.

Each DGH round features a thick, mechanically bonded jacket and a shallow nose cavity, locking the core and jacket together to ensure maximum weight retention and reliable feeding — even in muddy, cold, or fast-moving conditions.

Designed to function cleanly in both revolvers and semi-autos, Backcountry Defense brings big-bore stopping power in manageable, purpose-built packages. When it comes to protecting your life in the wild, Hornady’s not just offering ammo — they’re offering certainty.
