Fiocchi Shooting Dynamics 44 Magnum 240gr JSP Ammunition /50

Fiocchi Shooting Dynamics 44 Magnum 240gr JSP Ammunition /50

"The right tool for the job" is always sound advice, and that includes defensive firearms. Serious defense practitioners understand that personal safety requires 24/7 vigilance in all environments. That means multiple firearm platforms suited for specific needs from deep concealment micro pistols and snub-nose revolvers for discrete public carry to defensive rifles and shotguns in the home or on the road. Filling all those magazines and cylinders with reliable-performing defensive ammunition can be expensive, especially when dealing with multiple calibers and chamber gauges. That's why Fiocchi developed its Defense Dynamics line of ammunition. Defense Dynamics cartridges are built with the same quality cases, hulls, powders, and primers that experienced shooters have come to expect from Fiocchi ammunition while employing projectiles proven to deliver the kind of terminal performance you demand in a personal or home defense round. With a focus on jacketed and semi-jacketed hollow points, buckshot, and slugs, the Defense Dynamics line delivers professional results for price-conscious defensive ammunition.

About the Manufacturer:
Fiocchi was founded in 1876 in Lecco Italy and has been producing high quality ammunition ever since. In the 1950s, Fiocchi began importing ammunition into the United States and by the 1980s demand had grown and the decision was made to build a manufacturing facility in the US to help service the US market.

In 1983 a site in Ozark Missouri was chosen, right in the heart of America, and a facility was built on a former dairy farm. Since then we have continued to grow and expand, currently employing nearly 200 hard working Americans to produce some of the highest quality shotshell and centerfire ammunition available. While the company still has roots in Italy and do receive a portion of our products from our facility in Lecco, around 80% of Fiocchi brand products that are sold in the US market are loaded right here in Ozark or in our new facility near Little Rock Arkansas.

While we continue to grow, we remain true to both our Italian and American heritage and lineage and will continue to focus on quality craftsmanship, innovation, and unequaled customer service for many years to come.

About the 44 Magnum Cartridge
The .44 Remington Magnum, or .44 Magnum (10.9x33mmR), or just .44 Mag, is a large-bore cartridge originally designed for revolvers. After its introduction, it was quickly adopted for carbines and rifles. Despite the ".44" designation, guns chambered for the .44 Magnum round, and its parent, the .44 Special, use 0.429 in (10.9 mm) diameter bullets. The .44 Magnum is based on a lengthened .44 Special case, loaded to higher pressures for greater velocity (and thus, energy). The .44 Magnum has since been eclipsed in power by the .454 Casull, and most recently by the .460 S&W Magnum and .500 S&W Magnum, among others; nevertheless, it has remained one of the most popular commercial large-bore magnum cartridges. When loaded to its maximum and with heavy, deeply penetrating bullets, the .44 Magnum cartridge is suitable for short-range hunting of all North American game though at the cost of much recoil and muzzle flash when fired in handguns. In carbines and rifles, these problems do not arise.
