DoubleTap built this 45 Colt Tactical load for one job: putting a proven defensive projectile downrange with predictable results. It pairs a 160 grain Barnes TAC-XP all-copper hollow point with DoubleTap's careful loading, and the payoff is a round that expands wide, holds together, and drives deep. Because the bullet is solid copper rather than a lead core with a jacket, it keeps close to 100 percent of its weight even after punching through heavy clothing or other barriers, so you get consistent terminal performance shot after shot.
The Barnes TAC-XP has earned its reputation with serious defensive ammo makers for good reason. Its large, deep hollow-point cavity opens reliably and resists clogging with fabric or debris, which is exactly what you want when the round has to work through real-world obstacles. Loaded to standard pressure, this cartridge is safe for any 45 Colt revolver, and the copper design means noticeably less muzzle flash and a softer recoil impulse than heavier lead loads. That translates to faster, more confident follow-up shots.
Out of a 5.5 inch barrel, this load runs around 1125 fps and generates roughly 450 ft-lbs of energy at the muzzle. It's tuned to perform even from shorter tubes, clocking near 970 fps from a 3 inch Taurus Judge and about 935 fps from a 2.5 inch Ruger Alaskan. That makes it a natural fit for the Judge crowd and anyone running a compact 45 Colt wheelgun for protection.
The lead-free construction is a bonus for anyone shooting indoors or in spots where lead projectiles aren't ideal. Non-corrosive primers and modern propellants keep cleanup simple and reliability high. Whether it lives in a nightstand revolver or rides along on the trail, this is a dependable, no-nonsense defensive option.
Yes. This is a standard pressure load, so it's safe to run in any firearm chambered for 45 Colt. It's a popular pick for both full-size wheelguns and compact revolvers used for defense.
The TAC-XP is an all-copper hollow point with a large, deep cavity that expands reliably and penetrates consistently. Because it's solid copper, it retains nearly all its weight even after passing through barriers like heavy clothing, so you get dependable terminal performance every time.
It does. DoubleTap tuned this load with shorter barrels in mind, and it runs around 970 fps out of a 3 inch Taurus Judge and roughly 935 fps from a 2.5 inch Ruger Alaskan. That makes it a solid defensive choice for compact 45 Colt revolvers.
No. It uses modern non-corrosive primers and propellants, so it won't damage your bore. The brass case and lead-free copper bullet also make cleanup simple after a range session.
