"News at Hawk"

Hawk has played a role in the introduction of the  500 Smith & Wesson doing proto type work on jacketed bullets for the heavy handgun.  

 

Despite our extensive bullet selection we continue to expand even further, recently adding 32-20, 32 Remington, and spitzers in .429 for popular weights in 44 Mag and 444 Marlin chamberings.  Reports so far indicate they are great bullets in single shot pistols and bolt rifles.

 

Most hunters with .54 caliber muzzleloaders use 44 or 45 caliber handgun bullets when they load with a sabot. Let’s face it, if you are using a 54 instead of a 50 caliber, you should use the larger bore to your advantage. The 54 caliber muzzleloaders can use a sabot to shoot .500 diameter bullets, originally intended for the 50AE handgun. The problem is the 50AE bullets are only made from 300 to 350 grains while the 54 caliber gun’s potential goes quite higher. We have added weights up to 450 grains and the flat point design. Also a 400 grains x .035 jacketed flat point for the largest game and the 44 and 45 caliber selection now includes a suitable .035 jacketed bullet for all muzzleloaders.  

 

Muzzleloaders now have a broader selection of sabot combinations to choose from.  The addition of sabots for .458 and .475 caliber bullets lets hunters select hunting bullets for the new generation of fast shooting muzzleloaders and use on the most dangerous game.  Our selection of .458 and .475 bullets is the best in the industry.

 

Increased popularity in the .475 Wildey Magnum led us to introduce a .475 bullet made specifically for Auto loading pistols.  Wildey is now chambering for the 44 Auto Mag and Hawk is now making  44 pistol bullets having a nose designed specifically for feeding flawlessly in the auto.  

 

In all the handgun calibers, we now carry a .035 jacketed bullet for use on dangerous and heavily boned animals. In the past these bullets were custom orders and now as a listed item, you can purchase as little as one box.
