This 45 Long Colt load (45C2N) gives target shooters a smooth, mild, and easy-running Cowboy Action cartridge. HSM loads it with a 200 grain round nose flat point bullet. That shape works well in revolvers and lever-action rifles. The rounded nose helps feeding. The flat point gives clean impact on steel and paper. As a result, this round fits Cowboy Action practice, match shooting, and casual target work very well.
HSM rates this load at 750 fps with 250 ft-lbs of muzzle energy. Therefore, it keeps recoil soft and predictable. The 200 grain bullet gives the cartridge a lighter feel than heavier 250 grain 45 Colt loads. Meanwhile, the moderate velocity helps shooters stay in rhythm through long strings of fire.
This is not a hot hunting load. It is a purpose-built range load. Moreover, that is exactly what makes it useful. It lets shooters run classic revolvers and lever guns without excessive recoil, blast, or wear. The cartridge still has the big-bore feel people like from 45 Colt. However, it stays friendly enough for high-round-count practice.
Each box contains 50 rounds. Each case includes 10 boxes, totaling 500 rounds. Consequently, this case gives Cowboy Action shooters enough ammunition for match prep, range sessions, and reserve storage. HSM loads this ammunition in brass cases with Boxer primers, so reloaders can save the fired cases.
This is clean, practical 45 Long Colt range ammunition. It has the right bullet shape, the right recoil level, and the right bulk format for shooters who actually train with their classic-style firearms.
