HSM Bear 10mm Auto ammunition delivers the reliability and performance backcountry hunters and outdoorsmen depend on when things get serious. Built specifically for handgun hunters and backcountry travelers who need a round engineered for hard-hitting stopping power in remote terrain, the Bear Load uses a hard cast, heavy-for-caliber lead bullet—200 grain in this 10mm Auto load—paired with temperature-stable powders and quality brass that runs consistently across conditions. Since its introduction in 2011, HSM's Bear Load has earned a solid reputation among hunters who trust their lives to their ammunition.
The 200-grain LRNFP (lead round nose flat point) design is a proven choice for controlled penetration and stopping performance on medium to large game. HSM's component selection—from primer to powder to case—ensures the load performs the same whether you're shooting at sea level in the desert or in the cool mountains. This isn't marketing-speak; consistency matters when you're depending on your gun in the field.
Each box contains 20 rounds ready to load into magazines and trust downrange. If you're serious about 10mm Auto hunting ammunition that's been field-tested over more than a decade, HSM Bear Load is worth considering as part of your ammunition stockpile.
