20 Rounds of .45 ACP +P Ammo by Federal Solid Core - 240gr Hard Cast

Are bears and other dangerous game giving you a hard time? Bop ‘em with the Federal Premium Solid Core 45 ACP +P ammunition! They’ll regret bothering you in a big way.

This is extra powerful 45 ACP ammo – hence the “+P,” for “over-pressure – which means it recoils harder and hits its target more forcefully. The 240 grain bullet clears a 5” barrel’s muzzle at 1,000 fps velocity. If the round were standard pressure, then its muzzle velocity would be around 20% lower, and its close-range striking energy would around 36% weaker as well.

This round doesn’t just punch harder than a run-of-the-mill standard pressure defense load. It also inflicts a more suitable wound channel for killing a bear. Instead of delivering terminal expansion, the Solid Core hard cast uses its flat nose and extra rigid body to dig the deepest hole into the animal as it’s able. That increases your chance of hitting a very important organ, which you’ll be grateful for if a bear ever mistakes your head for a candy apple.

The Solid Core bullet is blue. That’s Syntech: a polymer coating which eliminates metallic barrel fouling and decreases friction during ignition. Syntech also creates a tight fit against the rifling to promote altogether more efficient ignition!
