DoubleTap 45 ACP+P 255gr Hardcast – Powerful .45 ACP+P Hardcast Ammo, 875 fps, 20 Rounds

Description

The DoubleTap 45 ACP+P 255gr Hardcast load is built for shooters who want more from their .45 ACP+P than typical factory ammunition delivers. DoubleTap loads a 255 grain Keith-style hardcast semi-wadcutter to a rated 875 feet per second, producing about 434 foot-pounds of energy from a 5 in barrel. DoubleTap calls this the heaviest and deepest penetrating .45 ACP load it offers, and it is meant for +P rated pistols carried in the woods or on the hunt.

Built for the Woods

• Not recommended for Glock or HK USP pistols with polygonal rifling
• Sharp shoulder cuts a clean, full-caliber hole
• A practical woods and hunting load for your 1911 or other .45

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+P 255gr Hardcast until you are comfortable with it, and store the rest in a cool, dry place in the original box.

Why Choose DoubleTap 45 ACP+P Ammo

Hikers and hunters who want 45 acp+p hardcast ammo for the trail need a load that penetrates deeply instead of expanding early. DoubleTap loads this heavy bullet to about 875 fps from a 5 inch barrel, producing roughly 434 ft-lbs of energy with the straight-line penetration that woods carry calls for.

The 45 acp+p 255 grain swc is a Keith-style semi-wadcutter cast from hard lead alloy. Its wide flat nose and sharp shoulder hold their shape through heavy muscle and bone, which makes it a sensible choice for protection from large animals.

If you already rely on doubletap 45 acp+p ammo for defense, this hardcast load gives your .45 a dedicated woods and hunting option. Because it uses a lead bullet, DoubleTap does not recommend it for Glock or HK USP pistols with polygonal rifling.

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+p 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.

This ammunition is a good fit for owners of steel-framed 1911 pistols, SIG P220 pistols, Smith and Wesson M and P 45 pistols and other .45 ACP handguns rated for +P ammunition who carry in the woods. Do not use it in firearms that are not rated for +P loads. Always confirm your firearm is chambered for .45 ACP+P, wear eye and ear protection, and follow all federal, state and local laws.
