My Son was here for Christmas and we loaded several rounds for him. We did not reload the ones with headstamps that said 45AR, 45AC, 45AW, and 45 auto. Didn't have but a couple hundred rounds of these. What are they?

Of those all I know is the 45 AR (Auto Rim) is a rimmed equivalent of the ACP to be used in revolvers without the moon clips required of the rimless ACP. My S&W 25-2 45 ACP that almost exclusively sees 45 AR loaded ammo below.

The .45 auto is the .45ACP. The true nomenclature is the .45 Automatic not the .45ACP for the ammo. I don't know when the .45 Automatic Colt Pistol (ACP)nomenclature came into use.

Very nice pistol! I checked the ammo again and all of the 45AC was headstamped Savage.
