Description

The Federal 45 Colt 225gr SWCHP load is built for shooters who want more from their .45 Colt than typical factory ammunition delivers.

The semi-wadcutter hollow point cuts clean, easy-to-score holes in paper and offers useful expansion for small game and pest control.

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 Federal 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 Federal 45 Colt 225gr SWCHP until you are comfortable with it, and store the rest in a cool, dry place in the original box.

The .45 Colt dates back to 1873 and the Colt Single Action Army, making it one of the oldest centerfire handgun cartridges still in wide use. It remains a favorite for cowboy action shooting, big-bore revolver enthusiasts and lever-action rifle owners, and standard-pressure loads like this one are safe in both classic and modern firearms chambered for it.
