Caliber: .500 Bushwhacker
Bullet: 340 grain CEB Raptor
General information: This offering is designed to shear four blades, leaving the remaining bullet base to continue penetrating, thus creating multiple wound paths. It will produce significantly more tissue disruption than our 400 grain CEB solid offering, but much more penetration than our 275 grain Barnes loading. It is best used for medium to heavy game.
Velocity and Muzzle Energy:
2,650 fps from a 20" .500 Bushwhacker rifle for 5,301 ft. lbs. of muzzle energy.
2,450 fps from a 14" .500 Bushwhacker BFR for 4,531 ft. lbs. of muzzle energy.
2,350 fps from a 10" .500 Bushwhacker BFR for 4,169 ft. lbs. of muzzle energy.
2,250 fps from a 7.5" .500 Bushwhacker BFR for 3,822 ft. lbs. of muzzle energy.
2,150 fps from a 6.5" .500 Bushwhacker BFR for 3,489 ft. lbs. of muzzle energy.
Quantity: 20 rounds
Note: As muzzle brakes are more effective with these loads, our 275-420 grain offerings produce substantially less felt recoil than our 510, 612, and 700 grain options.
Brass Discount: If you return your fired .500 Bushwhacker cases to us in good working order, we will discount $2 per round from any further ammunition loaded from the cases. This works out to $40 in savings per 20 round box of ammunition. See our Services page for more information on this process.

If you are interested in loading components, dies, or other non-restricted products, we can ship them to you if you reach out to us by email.
