Overview
DoubleTap's Hardcast Solid is the hottest 200gr factory hard cast load on the market by catalog spec, advertised at 1,300 fps and 750 ft-lbs of energy. Real-world chronograph data from a Glock 20 (published by DoubleTap themselves) shows closer to 1,105 fps and 542 ft-lbs, which is still squarely in full-power 10mm territory and more honest than most boutique loaders.
The bullet is a 21-Brinell hard cast solid with a wide flat nose and a gas check at the base. The wide flat nose meplat cuts a full-diameter wound channel through hide and bone; the gas check prevents the lead base from melting under full-power chamber pressure, which improves accuracy and reduces leading. The 21 Brinell hardness is at the upper end of practical hard cast and holds the bullet's shape through dense bone.
This is the DoubleTap load to pick for hunting hogs, woods defense in black bear country, or any application where you need a 200gr solid that drives straight and deep. It's slightly less expensive than Buffalo Bore or Underwood while sitting in the same terminal-performance class. The honest velocity disclosure from a real Glock 20 chronograph is a buying-decision factor in itself: most boutique loaders publish optimistic catalog numbers and let you discover the real velocity yourself.
