Gel test Results
We tested this Hornady Ammunition 45 ACP (Auto) ammo by firing five rounds with a Ruger SR45 with a -inch barrel into calibrated Clear Ballistics gelatin. Of those five rounds, we discovered the ammo penetrated an average of 17.92-inches into the gelatin. Our test rounds ended the test with an average expanded diameter of 0.534-inches, retaining 100% of the projectile's original weight.
