Black Hills Ammunition | The Power of Performance

Our website is more than just a product showpiece. It’s your view into Black Hills Ammunition. We often tell the story of how we started over 30 years ago with little more than borrowed money and an overwhelming enthusiasm for making ammo. That dedication followed us to where we are today.

We supply all match 5.56 ammunition for the US Military’s Service Rifle Teams and provide specialty ammunition for specific military operations. Our success also hinges on providing reasonably priced .223 and Cowboy Action ammunition in more calibers than any other company. Serious shooters use Black Hills Ammo. And that, we believe is the secret to our success.

The 6.5 Creedmoor is one of the most popular cartr $The 6.5 Creedmoor is one of the most popular cartridges of this decade. Accuracy, long range capability, and modest recoil have made it a top choice for long range competitors. Those same attributes make it popular for hunters. Black Hills Ammunition is offering another great new 6.5 Creedmoor hunting bullet for 2021, the 130 grain Dual Performance. Think a monolithic copper projectile, carefully designed and precision CNC machined for great performance at all reasonable hunting ranges. This is a versatile, purpose built hunting projectile that reliably performs on longer shots but still provides sufficient penetration on close shots that might present themselves. This bullet is designed to do both- expand upon impact, creating a large wound track plus penetrate deeply, thus the name Dual Performance. Upon impact the bullet expands quickly; the petals then fracture and continue to penetrate, cutting through the stretched and stressed tissue for fast, humane kills. Adequate penetration is assured by the solid copper shank of the projectile, retaining a uniform weight, which then continues on to a depth of up to 27”. Velocity is 2800 fps from a 22” barrel. If you have discovered the 6.5 Creedmoor, and are looking for the right load to be your hunting partner, try the 130 grain Dual Performance from Black Hills.$

The 300 Blackout provides users a larger caliber o $The 300 Blackout provides users a larger caliber option to 5.56mm in the same platform size. The 300 Blackout has an efficiency advantage compared to the 5.56 when used in shorter barreled firearms. While a 10.5” barrel is generally considered to be a “short” barrel for 5.56mm, many .300 Blackout weapons have barrels as short as 5.5” while still retaining effective ballistics. With the recent surge in popularity of this cartridge and the many platforms for it, new projectiles are being specially designed for this cartridge to ensure optimum feeding and best performance. The 115 grain Dual Performance projectile from Black Hills is an example of one of the best possible choices. This new projectile, manufactured by Lehigh Defense for Black Hills, is monolithic copper, precision machined to provide ideal and effective performance from those shorter barrels. The frontal portion of the bullet is designed to easily expand to form an effective wound cavity. During this process the expanding petals then fracture, creating additional penetrating projectile fragments that pierce the stretched and stressed tissue, cutting their own separate wound tracks from the projectile’s remaining solid shank. The main shank of the projectile, once free of the petals continues on to ensure adequate penetration, even at varied velocities resulting from barrel lengths from 5.5” to the longer barrels of 16” or more. If you are using a 300 Blackout to defend your country, your city or your family, you need the best performance available. #blackhillsammo #DualPerformance #onlyhitscount$
