Overview of 45 ACP Ammo

The .45 ACP, developed by John Moses Browning in 1905, is a cornerstone of American ammunition known for its power and reliability. It offers excellent stopping power and accuracy, making it ideal for personal protection, law enforcement, and competitive shooting. Originally designed to meet the U.S. Cavalry's need for a more effective round, it became the official sidearm of the U.S. Armed Forces in 1911 with the M1911 pistol. Favored by units like the FBI's Hostage Rescue Team and LAPD SWAT, the .45 ACP's versatility and effectiveness continue to make it a trusted choice over a century later.

    Very accurate. No feed/fire/extract issues.

  • Big Daddy said:

    I was impressed with the 45.ammo I purchased. The ammo cycled well in my Wilson CQB.The ammo was clean and performed very well. I would buy this ammo again.

  • harleybuckeye said:

    Seems to hit well. Absolutely zero problems. Will buy it again. Thanks!

  • DJLKEYS said:

    Atrocious performance in three different .45s: FNX-45, Glock 21, and 1911. Underpowered because it kept causing failure to eject and failure to load issues. Swapped this garbage out of the magazines with federal and all three were running smoothly. Avoid this brand

  • Tyler said:

    The ammo shoots perfectly out of my picky 1911. I had zero malfunctions out of 500 rounds shot. Fiocchi ammo gave me an average of one malfunction / 50 rounds shot. My only gripes are that the bullets look a little dirty, which of course had no issue with performance. And mostly the only thing I didn't like was that the tray the bullets come in is made out of Styrofoam so it leaves little foam bits all over the counter at the range.... All in all I would buy again.

  • Rob said:

    Value was not great. Over $.50/rnd after tax and shipping. Shot 200 of the 500 so far. Performance is flawless from the G21. Quality is very good and no complaints for its intended purpose, the range. I don’t expect any issues from Federal ammo. I will be buying more when these are gone.

  • Popup said:

    I recommend this for anyone to use

  • Alfred said:

    The ammo came quicker than I thought it would, ordered it on a Sunday and it was delivered to my front porch that Tuesday. I have nothing but good things to say about ammo.com and I have recommended the site to my coworkers.

  • Carl .45 said:

    Shoots well and the price - man!

  • Mark said:

    Every cartridge performed as expected.

  • al mcnulty said:

    first time I used Ammo.com. Service is great , I will be back.

  • Tim said:

    Wouldn't buy .45 any other way.

  • William said:

  • John said:

  • db said:

    great ammmo great site. quick delivery and very covenient

  • Romeo3 said:

    excellent price, service and quick delivery. Just what we all want in a provider. Best part is the price. Next is the fact that you only show what you have in stock, big plus in my book and next is the lightning fast hand off to the UPS guy. I have over 200 rounds already thru my new SR1911 and gun and ammo performed flawlesly, I Shall Return, (remember him).
