Engineering Complete: The Orca Hunter .50 Cal Is Headed to Production

The design work is done. After what seems like months, the Orca Hunter .50 cal is locked and headed to production.

Here's what we're sending to the machines: a 378-grain solid copper hunting conical, machined from C145 tellurium copper to half-thousandth tolerances. No lead swage. No plastic jacket. Every feature on this bullet exists for a reason — a soft nose that opens on impact, a hard middle that drives straight through bone, and a match-grade base that keeps groups tight.

We designed it to Oregon's muzzleloader-only rules first — the toughest in the West. If it's legal here, it's legal on your hunt.

What happens next: first production lots get machined, then every lot gets inspected before a single pack ships. We don't sell anything we wouldn't load ourselves on opening morning.
