Out of stock
Winchester Ammunition 230 Grain Jacketed Hollow-Point (JHP) Ammo Details
Winchester Ranger .45 ACP is one of the most in demand .45 rounds on the market- and for good reason. After all, it is nothing more than slightly modernized Black Talon ammo, but with a market friendly sounding name. This hard hitting ammo is famous for reliable penetration and destructive expansion, and consistent operation in a variety of .45's. This consistently hard to find ammo is perhaps one of the most advanced rounds you can acquire for your favorite 1911 or other .45 ACP handgun or carbine. Designed for the rigors of life and death law enforcement use, it is without a doubt one of the best choices the lawfully armed citizen can make for their carry ammo.Note - these rounds are +P, meaning they are loaded to slightly higher pressure than a standard 9mm ammunition cartridge might be. Many shooters find +P desirable for its increased velocity and potential performance but there a lot of firearm manufacturers who do not recommend shooting +P ammunition in your gun. Be sure you know you are comfortable with a +P round before purchasing this. For more, check out our post that's all about +p ammunition.
Pushing a 230 grain bullet at a blazing 990 feet per second, and generating 495 foot pounds of energy, this ammo comes in reloadable nickel plated brass cases, and is packed in generous 50 round boxes. While other premium .45 ammo is readily available, it does not live up to the same reputation for power and performance as Winchester Ranger T. Take advantage of this rare chance to acquire some Winchester Ranger ammo, and put some aside for when you might need it the most.
