Buffalo Bore Ammunition Outdoorsman 357 Magnum 180 Grain Lead Flat Nose Gas Check 20RD

Buffalo Bore Ammunition Outdoorsman 357 Magnum loads deliver serious stopping power for hunters and handgun hunters who demand performance in the field. This 180-grain hard-cast lead flat-nose round is purpose-built for taking medium game and provides the kind of terminal performance that separates premium ammunition from standard factory loads. Whether you're hunting hogs, deer, or relying on a revolver for backcountry defense, Buffalo Bore's Outdoorsman line puts together the components and pressure levels that make hits count.

The 180-grain projectile weight in 357 Magnum is a proven sweet spot for hunters—heavy enough to penetrate and expand reliably, light enough to deliver velocity that carries energy downrange. Buffalo Bore's hard-cast construction resists deformation and ensures consistent ballistic performance shot after shot. The gas-check base reduces fouling and extends barrel life, a detail that matters when you're running premium ammunition and expect your gun to stay reliable for decades.

Each box contains 20 rounds, making it easy to stock up for a hunting season or reload practice. Buffalo Bore has earned a reputation among serious handgun hunters and revolver shooters for refusing to compromise on quality—no cheap powders, no shortcuts. If you're stepping up from factory ammunition or looking to trust your hunting revolvers to ammo that actually delivers on its promises, this is the kind of load that justifies the investment.
