25rds - 45 ACP Remington Golden Saber 185gr. HP Ammo

Remington Ammunition 185 Grain Jacketed Hollow-Point (JHP) Ammo Details

This is .45 ACP Remington Golden Saber 185gr. Hollow Point Ammo. The Golden Saber High Performance Jacketed Hollow Point handgun ammo showcases Remington's continuing advances in bullet technology. No other handgun cartridge offers so many high-performance features for home security and law enforcement applications. Some of these features include: A nickel plated case for smooth functioning in all types of handguns. An exclusive brass bullet jacket which controls mushrooming and releases energy over a longer distance, compared to copper jacketed bullets. The nose cuts of the bullet go completely through the bullet jacket to enhance mushroom initiation over the widest ranges of practical velocities. The reduced nose diameter greatly increases accurracy over a wide range of distances. The primer and case mouth is sealed for moisture protection and the primers are triple checked during the manufacturing process, to ensure the most reliable functioning handgun ammo manufactured. The powders are treated with flash retardants to greatly decrease the amount of muzzle flash. This is a premium personal protection and law enforcement round. This ammo is packed in 25rd. boxes.

    THIS STUFF IS O.K. MAINLY BECAUSE OF ITS WEIGHT BUT THE 9MM IS JUNK! LIGHT WEIGHT, NOT BONDED ...IVE HEARD THAT LIKE SPEER GOLD DOT H.P. BECAUSE OF THE DESIGN THEY ALWAYS OPEN... SPEER GOLD DOT PEELS AT LEAST THE REM SABER EXPANDS..

    Great Round! Shoots clean and is very accurate. It feeds flawlessly through many different weapons including glocks, kimbers, hk's, and taurus. A GREAT DEAL at a great price. This 185 grain is great out of all my 3-4 inch barrels without any noticeable increase in recoil or flash.
