45 LONG COLT FIOCCHI 255 GRAIN CMJ (50 ROUNDS)

About This Fiocchi .45 COLT Ammunition

This 45 Long Colt cartridge by Fiocchi will give you satisfyingly authentic performance while you’re slinging your six like they did back in the old days. Its 255 grain projectile is the same weight that Union Metallic Cartridge Company originally loaded its caliber with, and its 750 fps muzzle velocity is what Cowboy Action Shooting enthusiasts more often than not prefer.

Still, a little innovation can go a long way. This round’s projectile sports a complete metal jacket, which envelopes even its base to prevent propellant gasses from creating a mist of aerosol lead with every trigger pull. (Nine out of ten doctors agree that lead is toxic; The tenth was out to lunch during the survey.) The CMJ is in every way like the TMJ, but because it utilizes less copper in its construction it keeps the round’s price tag more appealing.

Fiocchi completed this round with a reloadable brass casing, clean burning and smokeless propellant, and a modern non-corrosive primer. And don’t worry, Italians are more than qualified to make a cowboy load -- think of this as the Spaghetti Western equivalent of ammunition.
