DoubleTap
DoubleTap Ammunition is a Cedar City, Utah manufacturer producing premium high-performance loads across handgun and rifle calibers — occupying the same market space as Buffalo Bore with maximum-pressure defensive and hunting loads that extract every available foot-pound of energy from each cartridge. DoubleTap is one of the few domestic ammunition manufacturers that regularly loads to true SAAMI maximum pressure specifications, producing velocities that often exceed those of major manufacturers’ standard loads in the same caliber.

DoubleTap Defense: Handgun Loads
DoubleTap’s handgun defensive line covers 9mm, .40 S&W, .45 ACP, 10mm, .357 Magnum, .44 Magnum, and other common calibers with both jacketed hollow point and hard cast lead options. Their 10mm loads are particularly popular — DoubleTap produces some of the most powerful commercial 10mm loads available, including a 200gr hard cast at 1,300 fps specifically for outdoor carry and hunting use where maximum energy and penetration matter. For buyers who want the full ballistic potential of 10mm rather than the downloaded loads common from major manufacturers, DoubleTap is a natural first choice.
DoubleTap Rifle Loads
DoubleTap produces rifle ammunition in .223/5.56, .308 Winchester, 6.5 Creedmoor, and other calibers with a focus on hunting and precision applications. Their rifle loads use quality bullets from Nosler, Barnes, and Sierra — premium component bullets loaded to maximum performance specifications. For hunters and precision shooters who want maximum-performance factory loads without handloading, DoubleTap rifle ammunition delivers quality components at true maximum pressure.
Frequently Asked Questions: DoubleTap Ammunition
How does DoubleTap compare to Buffalo Bore?
Both produce maximum-performance handgun loads with hard cast and JHP options, and both are popular for the same use cases — outdoor carry, dangerous game, and maximum-performance defensive use. DoubleTap is Utah-based; Buffalo Bore is Idaho-based. Both offer similar quality and comparable performance. Most buyers choose based on specific caliber/load availability and price at the time of purchase rather than brand loyalty.
Is DoubleTap ammo safe in standard firearms?
DoubleTap loads to SAAMI maximum pressure specifications. Verify that your firearm is rated for the specific load you intend to use. Some DoubleTap loads are specifically marked for use only in strong modern firearms — always read the product description before purchasing.
