Description

This is the heaviest load Double Tap offers for the .45 Colt platform, and it's engineered specifically for hunters and those who need real stopping power in the field. The 360-grain WFNGC (wide flat nose gas check) hardcast bullet cuts through game and obstacles with serious penetration. You get 1200 fps and 1151 ft/lbs of energy from a 7.5-inch barrel, which climbs to 1495 fps from a 16.5-inch carbine.

Understanding the +P Pressure Rating

These cartridges operate at 27,500 PSI, which is elevated compared to standard .45 Colt pressure. This matters because they're only safe in specific firearms: newer Ruger Blackhawk and Redhawk revolvers, TC Contender, Colt Anaconda, BFR revolvers, Freedom Arms firearms, and modern Model 1892 lever guns including Winchester and Marlin 1894s. You need to verify your gun can handle +P before firing these.

The Hardcast Bullet Design

The wide flat nose meplat (the flat front surface) cuts a large, clean wound channel without deflection. Double Tap casts these bullets to approximately 21 Brinell hardness, so they stay intact on impact and won't deform or fragment. The gas check collar on the back prevents powder burn from fouling your barrel. This solid construction is exactly what separates a hunting round from plinking ammo.

Why This Load for Serious Work

Penetration depth matters when you're dealing with heavy bone, thick hide, or longer-range shots. This load delivers that performance while staying reloadable with its brass cases. You get 20 rounds per box, and the hand-loaded construction means tight powder charge tolerances held within one-tenth of a grain.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use these .45 Colt +P rounds in any .45 Colt revolver?

No, these are only safe in specific firearms rated for +P pressure. They work in newer Ruger Blackhawk and Redhawk revolvers, TC Contender, Colt Anaconda, BFR revolvers, Freedom Arms firearms, and modern Model 1892 lever guns (Winchester and Marlin 1894s). Always check your firearm's manual or contact the manufacturer to confirm compatibility before shooting them.

What makes the 360-grain hardcast bullet better for hunting than standard rounds?

The 21 Brinell hardcast construction means the bullet stays intact on impact, penetrating deep through bone and hide without fragmenting or deforming. The wide flat nose cuts a large, clean wound channel, and the gas check collar prevents barrel fouling. This gives you reliable, deep penetration for big game at any range.

Are these cases reloadable?

Yes, they come in reloadable brass cases. Once you fire them, you can reload the brass with your own components if you reload ammunition. This can help offset the cost of these premium hunting rounds over time.

What's the difference between this 360-grain load and lighter .45 Colt loads?

This is the heaviest .45 Colt load Double Tap makes. The 360-grain bullet delivers more momentum and deeper penetration, especially important for large game or longer-range hunting where light bullets might not perform adequately. The trade-off is more recoil than standard .45 Colt loads, so expect a stiff push from your revolver.
