The HSM 45 Schofield Cowboy Action load is engineered specifically for competitive and recreational shooting with single-action revolvers and matching lever-action rifles. This isn't ammo that tries to be everything to everyone—it's dialed in for what works on the range and in Cowboy Action Shooting events.
Each round features a 200-grain lead round nose flat point bullet paired with moderate velocity of 700 feet per second. That velocity level matters. It's enough to run reliably through Schofield revolvers and lever-action rifles without pushing pressures beyond what these firearms are designed to handle. The flat point design feeds cleanly, shoots accurate, and creates visible target holes for easy scoring.
Built on brass cases with non-corrosive primers, these rounds are reloadable if you handload down the road. Fifty rounds per box means you've got enough for a training session or a competitive match without overbuying. The 45 Schofield itself is a shorter, rimmed cartridge developed in 1875 for faster reloading in cavalry revolvers. Today it's experiencing a real resurgence with folks who shoot historically correct firearms or compete in Cowboy Action Shooting. If you're running a Schofield, Taylor & Co replica, or any lever-action rifle chambered for this caliber, HSM's ammunition is a solid choice for practice and competition.
The 45 Schofield is purpose-made for Schofield revolvers, including originals and modern reproductions like Taylor & Co models. It also works in lever-action rifles and some modern revolvers like the Smith & Wesson Model 460 that chamber this caliber. Make sure your revolver is specifically chambered in 45 Schofield—don't confuse it with 45 Colt, which is a longer cartridge.
Absolutely. Most Cowboy Action Shooting events happen at close range (7-15 yards), and 700 fps provides plenty of power and accuracy for competition at those distances. The moderate velocity actually works in your favor—less recoil means faster follow-up shots and more precise shooting.
Yes. The ammunition comes in new brass cases with Boxer primers, making them suitable for reloading once fired. This is great if you want to develop custom loads for your specific firearm or if you just want to extend the life of good brass.
HSM's reputation centers on consistent, quality factory ammunition. Their Cowboy Action line is specifically engineered for period-correct performance in historical firearms, using proper velocity levels and lead bullets that feed reliably. You get factory precision without the hassle of handloading.
No. The 45 Schofield is shorter than 45 Colt and won't chamber in a 45 Colt revolver. A 45 Colt revolver can fire 45 Schofield ammunition, but a 45 Schofield revolver cannot safely fire the longer 45 Colt round. Always verify your firearm's marked caliber before loading.
If you own a 45 Schofield or similar period-correct revolver, this is a solid choice for learning fundamentals. The moderate recoil makes it manageable, and the round nose flat point design feeds and shoots reliably. Start with proper hearing and eye protection and get comfortable with your specific firearm before heading to matches.
