Buffalo Bore Ammunition

These +P 45 Auto Rim loads use high quality Starline brass with flash-suppressed powder to shoot in the dark without blinding yourself. These loads are the equivalent of +P+ 45 ACP ammo, also known as 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 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.

Item # 32A - was designed for deep penetration with no bullet expansion. It will shoot right through stick frame and drywall construction walls and through both doors on a 2003 Dodge Ram or through a black bears skull, etc. It was designed for, among other things, outdoor use including black bear protection. Expect around 30 inches of penetration on live flesh and bone.
