45 ACP Bullets
45 ACP Bullets for Reloaders
This page is products that only contain bullets meant for shooters who reload their ammo. To find 45 auto rounds ready to fire, please head to our 45 ACP ammo page.The 45 ACP (aka 45 Auto) was designed by John Moses Browning in 1904 and eventually adopted for use in a certain little-known handgun called the 1911. We kid, of course. The 1911 is arguably the most recognized pistol in the world, so it’s only natural that 45 ACP bullets for reloading are in high demand.
Like many other military firearms, the original 1911 was designed to fire a very specific cartridge. The original “Cal. .45 Automatic Pistol Ball Cartridge, Model of 1911” has a 230 grain FMJ bullet that is loaded to a muzzle velocity of 850 fps, although its velocity spec has since decreased to 830 fps.
If your modern 45 ACP pistol is comfortable handling ammo that falls outside of strict mil-spec, you can get a little more inventive with your 45 Auto bullets. Jacketed bullets weighing 185 and 200 grains are also common, as are lead, copper, and frangible 45 ACP bullets. Bulk 45 ACP bullets for reloading are especially popular among preppers whose 1911 pistols factor prominently into their emergency plans. Even if you just like picking up the brass you find at the range for casual projects back at home, you’ll find that the 45 ACP is one of the easier rounds to reload. "

Great product and fast shipping.

Great product and fast shipping. They had to ship the order twice because UPS busted the box and lost over half of the bullets. This happen both times. Like I said this is not the fault of Wideners. Would recommend.

Good Bullets, Good Price
-
The bullets got here exactly when they were supposed to, correct quantities, undamaged. I use coated bullets because they've less expensive, and I can use them in my Glocks. Berry bullets have always shot well out of all my pistols, so I have no complaints. I really prefer jackets bullets, but for target/shooting practice,these bullets work well.

Sent me .452 diameter bullets instead of .451 diameter!
-
Would have been 5 stars but they sent me the wrong diameter bullets. I previously ordered .500 .452 diameter bullets and the order came fast and accurate. I then wanted to try 500 .451 diameters to see if they grouped any different but they sent me .452’s again.

Absolutely worth it!
-
First time 45 ACP reloader! Fast delivery! Cheapest pricing!! Extremely forgiving to reload (definitely expand the casing just a little to prevent damaging the plating). Perfect for 45!!! Extremely accurate and the load to 0.001" of SAAMI specs! Very impressive!! Also, soft enough to swipe your bore as you shoot! Great gas seal and extremely accurate... my go to bullet from now on for all 45 applications!

I had all the components needed to reload except bullets. I had never purchased anything from Widners but, they were the only firm that had 45 cal 230 gr bullets, also from a company with whom I had no
experience, in their inventory. In desperation, I placed my order. My order arrived in only a few days and there’s been no discernible difference in my shot groups, at the range, using these bullets. I now have a new source, Widners, and an acceptable mfg.Review by Cpts2668 (Posted on 11/23/2020)

This is an excellent bullet at a superb price point! I use them in my Kimber Gold Match2 (stainless) with great results seated over a variety of powders! Also use them in my 50 cal T/C Impact muzzleloader with various 50/45 sabots, loaded over Blackhorn 209 propellant and yielding 1800+ f-sec velocity with 11/4" groups @50 yds!

Berry's .452 Diameter Bullets - 230 Grain Hybrid HP – 500 Count (Not Ammo)
$87.85Cost Per Bullet 17.6¢ per bullet Product Type Bullets Bullet Weight 230 Grain Bullet Caliber 45 ACP, 45 GAP Quantity 500 Bullet Type Jacketed Hollow-Point (JHP) Manufacturer Berry's Manufacturer SKU 00400 This is not loaded ammunition. You cannot fire these bullets right after you open their packaging, as they lack cases, powder and propellant. Do not order these component bullets if you do not handload your own ammunition.
Do order these component bullets if you do handload your own ammunition, though! These 0.452” diameter, 0.610" overall length, 230 grain jacketed hollow points are perfect if you want to make your own 45 ACP self-defense ammo. They’re also perfect if you’re a fan of the 45 GAP and are tired of looking for high-quality ammo for personal protection.
This is Berry’s Hybrid Hollow Point. It starts out as a swaged lead core, which is electroplated with copper to create zero exposed lead and excellent jacket concentricity. The electroplating process also yields a bonded jacket, so you can count on reliably deep penetration during a self-defense scenario. Every Berry’s bullet is restruck to ensure that it adheres to tight specifications.
Berry’s advises that these bullets have an effective velocity of 825 to 975 fps. They also advise loading a 1.210” long 45 ACP cartridge. Use a round nose seating stem to avoid damaging the Hybrid Hollow Point’s performance, and do not overcrimp the brass after seating (you can use a roll or taper crimp). Load data are available in any manual or on any propellant manufacturer’s website.Customer Reviews

Accurate

Despite the couple of bad reviews of this Hornady product my experience is just the opposite. The HAPs both 200 and 185 will shoot very tight groups and at book or higher velocities.

good projectile
-
I love loading and shooting these. easy to load and nice shooting. I do prefer a 200gr but these are fine. As mentioned, they may not be bullseye quality but i shoot lead SWC when i want to be tight. I will say these perform better at higher velocities. When i load down in the 700's they do get loose and seem to like 900 or even a little faster, especially out of tight barrels. So if you aren't getting the accuracy you want maybe drop a few more grains in and see if it helps

HAPs are very accurate and easy to load. Hornady's manual has many loads for the 185, 200, and 230 grains HAP.

Very disappointed
-
I bought these bullets a while ago to shoot bullseye at 50 yards. I have loaded these bullets with various different powders and loads and I have come to the conclusion that they just don't shoot accurately. Sorry, but I would not buy them again. I have had other issues with the Hornaday brand and I am staying away.

Very good performing bulk target bullets
-
I have purchased a couple cases each of these HAP bullets in 9mm, 45 and 40 caliber. They perform well accuracy wise, I’m getting ¾-1” groups at 25yds out of a Sig P220 and a Wiley Clapp 1911 Government, both with Barsto barrels. I would caution that the jackets are thin or soft as I reloaded some Federal primed brass that had bullet sealant and it caused the cone to deform on the 40 caliber bullets.
