500rds - 45 ACP +P Remington Golden Saber 185gr. JHP Ammo

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

Remington Golden Saber ammo is a widely used self-defense load that uses a brass-jacketed hollow point bullet to provide strong levels of expansion and penetration. This .45 ACP load comes in a 500 round case ideal for realistic training. Each round fires a 185 grain jacketed hollow point bullet; this is a relatively light projectile moving at a high velocity to deliver more reliable mushrooming. This ammo is made in the USA and uses non-corrosive Boxer primers and nickel-plated brass cases. As a +P load, this ammo delivers increased power and recoil; it should not be used in older or subcompact firearms not rated for high pressure cartridges.
