45 ACP +P 200 grain Hard Cast LSWCs




Friends

I have completed a run of +P.45 ACP 200 Grain Hard Cast Lead Semi Wadcutters. These are what I nicknamed my "Jeff Cooper Specials" as Col. Cooper was a very big fan of a hot hard cast SWC for defense purposes. Very early in his career, he advocated some hard cast SWC loads that were actually into the .45 Super territory but would eventually tame that down a bit, which was a very good thing for both the shooter and the guns!

This is a load that has been getting it done for knowledgeable 1911 shooters for decades. Both for social work and in the game fields.

This +P load was tested using a Glock 21, Glock 30S, HK USP, 4506, 4563, and a couple of 1911s.

Velocity averaged 980 FPS using two test guns with 5" barrels.





The ammo runs through a Glock 21 like a Democrat runs through someone else's money!

You do know you are shooting a powerhouse though, when you are shooting these loads in a plastic gun! laugh



This is an outstanding all around game/defense load. I have used hot SWCs like this for years on animals up to and including Mule Deer and nothing has ever gotten away. cool


This run is produced in new Starline brass.

Price includes shipping and insurance.

It is $115 per 100 rounds to your door, which after S&I works out to about $45 per box of 50.



From here forward the ammo will be shipping in 50 round traditional boxes, rather than the 100 round Berry's and MTM plastic boxes previously used. Every now and then breakage was occurring due to the extreme handling by the shippers. Ammo will still be sold 100 rounds at a time, just shipped in more traditional heavier duty, impact resistant boxes.

* No, I don't sell them in boxes of 20. The shipping (not to mention packaging) is so costly that it makes no sense to do so .



Post the amount you want followed with a PM, so I can keep track please.

I have 10 (100 round) boxes available at the moment.

I take Venmo, USPS Money order, or checks (once cleared by the bank). I do not take paypal.

Please post the amount you want followed by a PM.


You have to be 21 since it is handgun ammo. Will only ship to places where legal and it is your responsibility to know your local laws. No shipping to restricted states or jurisdictions. CONUS only, and I do not ship to, MA, DC, CT, CA or other locations with restrictions.


BEFORE YOU SEND A PM, READ THE FAQS PLEASE.

FAQs/Answers to FAQs




YES, I am a licensed manufacturer of ammunition.
NO, These are not "re-loads" this is new manufactured ammunition, using new components.
NO, I am not interested in trades of old brass.
NO, for a multitude of reasons I do not disclose what powder types or amounts are used in the manufacturing of the ammunition.
NO, I am not currently producing any rifle ammunition.
NO, returns of ammunition are not accepted. Know what you are ordering, before you order.




THANK YOU to all of you guys for all of the kudos about the ammo!

I truly appreciate it!

Many years ago I used the 201 KT bullets loaded to that velocity when shooting in IPSC competition with the Nampa Wildbunch.
During that time I read how Cooper had used it to shoot a deer finding that it worked quite well. So I thought I'd try it.

At a range of about 25 yards I hit the 4x4 mulie tight behind the shoulder, with the bullet breaking a rib as it exited the opposite side of his chest. He ran maybe 20 yards and tipped over dead. Thus confirming Col. Coopers' assessment.
Very effective load!

I have you down for two.

8 boxes left!

Yes the load has dropped a lot of targets right in their tracks. Nothing like a superbly precise load that cuts holes straight and deep. smile

I think I've shot more of those 200gr LSWC's than anything else through my 1911's over the years.

They are great all around loads! smile

Mackay, if I weren't so flush with 45acp right now, I'd just take what was left...
