.45 ACP · 230gr JHP · New Production · Utah-Built
Built For The Range. Trusted On The Timer.
Factory-new .45 Auto 230gr Jacketed Hollow Point, loaded in-house for clean feeding and consistent accuracy — a competition favorite priced for high-volume practice.
New-Production .45 Auto
The 230gr .45 ACP is the classic big-bore load — heavy, slow, and controllable, exactly what the platform was designed around. Ours is built on new brass (never reman), loaded with premium components for consistent feeding and accuracy round after round. It's a favorite among competitive shooters in 3-Gun, USPSA, IPSC, and IDPA.
Note: This is a range and competition hollow point built for practice and sport shooting — it is not marketed as a home-defense or duty load. For carry or home defense, choose a purpose-built defensive .45 load.

Common Questions
Is this .45 ACP good for self-defense or carry?
No — this is a factory-new range and competition JHP built for practice and sport shooting (USPSA, IPSC, IDPA, 3-Gun), not marketed as a defensive carry load. For carry or home defense, choose a purpose-built defensive .45 load.
Will it cycle in my 1911 or Glock 21?
Yes. Standard 230gr .45 ACP is the classic weight these platforms are tuned for — full-size 1911s, Glock 21/30, and most .45 pistols run it reliably. Heavily customized or ultra-light guns may need tuning; the 100% guarantee covers you either way.
What's the recoil like?
Classic .45 — a soft, heavy push at about 830 FPS rather than a sharp snap. Controllable and easy on follow-up shots, which is exactly why competitors like it.
Why a hollow point for the range?
This JHP is loaded for consistent, clean-feeding practice performance at a fair price — competitors like it for accuracy and reliable function on the clock. It's a training and sport JHP, not a premium defensive expansion load.
Do you offer free shipping?
