Keeping Traditions Alive Since 1953
Secure Transactions provided with 
.45 Long Colt has deep roots in American firearms history, but modern ammunition pushes its capabilities well beyond cowboy-era loads. Cor-Bon's +P 200-grain hollow point taps into that heritage while delivering contemporary performance for personal protection and defensive use.
The +P designation means this ammunition is loaded to elevated pressure compared to standard .45 Long Colt specs. That pressure translates directly to velocity and energy that wouldn't be possible with traditional loads. Cor-Bon combines this increased velocity with jacketed hollow point bullets that feature internal and external serrations. The result is consistent expansion that reaches roughly twice the original bullet diameter in ballistic testing, with penetration depth in the 9 to 14 inch range depending on what you hit. The hollow point cavity opens up reliably even if it contacts intermediate barriers.
You're looking at 1100 fps muzzle velocity and 537 ft-lbs of energy from this 200-grain load. That's a solid midpoint for the caliber, fast enough to ensure the hollow point performs as designed while still remaining manageable in terms of recoil in revolvers or lever guns that are rated for +P ammunition. Cor-Bon uses flash-suppressed powder in this loading, which helps with low-light defensive situations where muzzle flash can be a concern. The ammunition comes in new brass cases that are boxer-primed and reloadable if you're into handloading.
This is a self-defense load first and foremost. If you carry a .45 Long Colt revolver or rifle and want defensive-grade ammunition with proven expansion characteristics, this checks the box. The velocity is sufficient for reliable performance without being overkill for what most revolvers can comfortably handle. It's not your grandpa's cowboy ammunition, but it respects the caliber's heritage while leveraging modern bullet design and load development.
No. This ammunition is specifically loaded to +P pressure, which means your firearm must be rated to handle +P loads. Check your revolver or rifle's manual or markings to confirm +P capability before using this ammunition. Standard .45 Long Colt firearms may not be suitable for this higher-pressure load.
The 200-grain bullet is on the lighter side for modern .45 Long Colt ammunition, but Cor-Bon pushes it to 1100 fps velocity with the +P loading. This creates a faster, flatter-shooting load compared to heavier traditional options while still delivering plenty of energy. Lighter bullets also mean slightly less recoil, which helps with follow-up shots in defensive situations.
Yes, the cases are boxer-primed brass and can be reloaded. However, because this is +P ammunition, you'll need to be extra careful during the reloading process to maintain proper pressure levels and not exceed the +P specification. If you're new to reloading, stick with a trusted manual specific to +P .45 Long Colt loads.
Cor-Bon's testing shows the hollow point expands to roughly twice the original bullet diameter in ballistic gelatin, with penetration in the 9 to 14 inch range. The internal and external serrations on the bullet promote controlled expansion while the high velocity of this load helps ensure reliable opening even if the hollow point contacts intermediate materials first.
