I’d bet you recognize the name Barnes Bullets, Cutting Edge, Hawk Bullets and Maker Bullets!Īs you can see from their website, Black Butterfly has a very impressive menu to choose from. Pretty cool! Black Butterfly produces some high-tech proprietary rounds and it has partnered with other industry giants to diversify its 458 portfolio. Nick and Lenny also expanded their research into the 450 Bushmaster and 300BLK.
#458 SOCOM SUBSONIC FOR HOGS FREE#
Black Butterfly has a broad range of 458 SOCOM high velocity, low velocity/subsonic, lead free and frangible loads to choose from. I contacted Black Butterfly Ammunition soon after I completed my in depth SHWAT article featuring the 458 SOCOM’s development and its use in the field. Nick explained, “We started with the 458 SOCOM not because it was easy, because it was difficult and we wanted to do something outside the box as far as new ammo companies go…” Many industry veterans were consulted prior to getting started, including SBR Ammunition, Tromix, CMMG, Radical Firearms, Viking Armament and several others. This was not by mistake, it was by design. The two brothers entered the market with one of my favorite hunting cartridges, the 458 SOCOM.

Some would call this “old school”, but I call it “well-schooled”. Each round produced is individually inspected and a random sample is shot on their private 200 yard range. The two brothers firmly believe that quality ammunition manufacturing has become a lost art. The massive power behind the fluttering wings of the Black Butterfly can best be explained by the founders of Black Butterfly Ammunition.īlack Butterfly Ammunition was founded in 2015 by Nick and his brother Lenny. Who or what found itself in the cross hairs of such wicked destruction tell no tales, but in the end I found myself telling the story.

The mere sight of this winged creature served as an omen of darkness for someone or something. Are you superstitious? Do you believe in the myth, the legend and the folklore surrounding Black Butterflies? For centuries many cultures have identified the black butterfly as a symbol of misfortune or death.
