Hornady Outfitter Ammo: Built for Big Game Reliability

Here's why Hornady's line of Outfitter ammunition deserves a spot in every hunter's pack.

If there's an ultimate trustworthy figure in the hunting world, it's got to be the seasoned big game guide or outfitter. You know him, and have probably hunted with him. He's got years of reliability under his belt, he's able to perform under tough conditions, and he's always willing to go the extra mile to see a successful harvest.

That attitude and capability is personified in Hornady's Outfitter ammunition, the go-to for guides, hunters, and anyone looking for a supreme big game cartridge that'll do the job, time after time.

Features of Hornady Outfitter Ammo

Hornady's Outfitter ammunition starts with premium GMX® bullets made from a monolithic copper alloy. The GMX® bullet provides uniform, controlled expansion, deep penetration, and an eye-opening +95% weight retention. There's a sealed primer and case mouth for total watertight protection, and the nickel-plated cases are corrosion resistant and waterproofed to ensure total defense against moisture.

In other words, exposing these to humidity, or even dropping one in a muddy creek, won't deem it useless.

The Outfitter line has a polymer tip, and it can routinely expand to one-and-a-half times its diameter depending on the impact velocity.

The ammo is entirely California-compatible and appropriate for other areas requiring nontraditional bullets. The caliber options make it so that it can be used on a variety of big game. Anything from deer or pronghorn to elk or moose is vulnerable to the right cartridge of Hornady Outfitter.

Popular cartridges from .243 all the way up to .375 Ruger are available, meaning if you have an even slightly common hunting rifle, you'll find Outfitter ammo to match.

This is the sort of ammo backcountry hunters can capitalize on, knowing it will stand up to the elements and perform the way it's supposed to.

You can learn more by checking out the Outfitter ammo line page on Hornady's website, and find out if there's a supply dealer nearby to pick some up.

Just like a trusted veteran of the hunting guide service, Outfitter ammo won't let you down. They only way to know for sure is to try it for yourself.
