50 Rounds of 230gr FMJ .45 ACP Ammo by Blazer

The .45 ACP has a fascinating history. It came about because the U.S. Cavalry discovered their ammunition was woefully inadequate when put up against the adrenaline-fueled charges of the Moro Warriors during the American-Philippine War. After the war they set about testing and handloading ammunition, looking for the right round. One test was the rather infamous Thompson-LaGarde Tests which involved shooting cadavers and livestock. When it was all done they knew what kind of stopping power and wounding capacity was needed, and the .45 ACP was born.

At 230 grain these are considered fairly heavy rounds for the .45 ACP. Being this heavy enables them to strike targets with compelling force. These are Total Metal Jacket, TMJ, rounds and so do not expand on impact. As with all target practice, be sure of your target and what is beyond it – and have a reliable backstop in place. Each of these rounds flies from the barrel of your gun with a muzzle velocity of 845 feet per second and a muzzle energy of 345 foot-pounds. This ammunition is great for target practice, tactical training, and plinking.
