You’ve been asking for a couple +P 45 AUTO RIM loads for a long time, so by popular demand, here they are. Both loads are using high-quality Starline brass. We’ve also incorporated a flash suppressed powder so you can shoot in the dark without blinding yourself and this is important because over 95% of all civilian shootings in the USA occur in low light when the criminal element is at work. Both of these loads are the equivalent of +P+ 45 ACP ammo or as it is also known, 45 Super. These are very stout loads, but will not harm modern 45 ACP revolvers, nor will these loads harm any post-war 45 ACP revolvers. Feel free to safely shoot these loads in any post-war 45 ACP revolver that is in normal good operating condition.
Check out the below velocities fired from personal real world revolvers, NOT test barrels. You’ll notice that the new S&W 4 inch Mt. Gun gives speeds almost as fast as the older S&W revolvers with 5.5 and 6.5-inch barrels. This is NOT a typo. It simply shows that the new S&W revolvers are made to much tighter tolerances than the older S&W revolvers and therefore give higher velocities per inch of barrel. Also, we are aware that the 1937 manufactured model 1917 we used as a test gun, (see below velocity chart) is not post-war.
This ammunition is new production, non-corrosive, in boxer primed, reloadable brass cases.
