DoubleTap 45 ACP 230gr FMJ – Reliable 45 ACP Range Ammo, 1000 fps, 20 Rounds

Description

The DoubleTap 45 ACP 230gr FMJ load is built for shooters who want more from their 45 ACP than typical factory ammunition delivers. DoubleTap loads a 230 grain full metal jacket flat point to a rated 1000 feet per second, producing about 511 foot-pounds of energy from a 5 inch 1911. Unlike typical 45 ACP ball ammo, this load pushes the classic 230 grain bullet to full power, and its flat point cuts a cleaner hole than a round nose.

Why Choose the DoubleTap 45 ACP 230gr FMJ

• 230 grain full metal jacket flat point
• Rated 1000 fps, 511 ft-lbs (5 in 1911)
• Flat point profile for a cleaner wound channel
• Brass cases, made in the USA
• 20 rounds per box, item 45A230FP

Built for the Range and the Trail

• Full-power practice with your carry 45
• Outdoor carry where a non-expanding bullet is preferred
• Shooters who want penetration with the classic 230 grain weight
• 1911 pistols, Glock 21 and 30, S&W M&P45 and other 45 ACP handguns

DoubleTap offers several 45 ACP loads, from a lead-free 160 grain hollow point to 230 grain Bonded Defense JHPs, so owners can pair this full-power FMJ with a defensive load of similar recoil.

Buying ammunition by the box from the same production lot keeps velocity and point of impact consistent from one range trip to the next. Keep a record of the load you carry, check your ammunition for dents or loose bullets from time to time, and rotate your carry rounds so the ones in your firearm stay fresh. These simple habits help you get the full performance DoubleTap builds into every cartridge.

Before you trust any new load, fire enough rounds through your firearm to confirm it feeds, fires and ejects reliably and that the point of impact matches your sights. Full-power loads produce more recoil and muzzle blast than typical range ammo, so practice with the DoubleTap 45 ACP 230gr FMJ until you are comfortable with it, and store the rest in a cool, dry place in the original box.

Why Choose DoubleTap 45 ACP Ammo

Standard 45 ACP ball ammo usually runs around 830 to 850 fps, but DoubleTap drives this 230 grain flat point to a rated 1000 fps and 511 foot-pounds from a 5 inch 1911. That extra speed, combined with the flat nose, makes it useful both for realistic practice and for situations where a non-expanding bullet that penetrates deeply is the better choice.

When you compare 45 acp range ammo, most shooters want reliable feeding and consistent accuracy. This 45 acp 230 grain fmj load uses the traditional bullet weight that 1911s were designed around, so it feeds smoothly while giving you a stronger load than typical target ammunition.

DoubleTap Ammunition is an American company known for loading popular calibers to their full potential, especially the 10mm Auto and other magnum handgun rounds. Doubletap 45 acp ammo is loaded with quality components and brass cases, and many shooters choose it when they want the performance a caliber was designed for rather than a reduced-power range load.

1911 owners and 45 ACP shooters who want a full-power FMJ for practice or outdoor carry will find this a practical choice. Always confirm your firearm is chambered for 45 ACP, wear eye and ear protection, and follow all federal, state and local laws.
