223 Rem - 55 Grain V-MAX - Fiocchi - 50 Rounds
Martin and Lewis. Abbot and Costello. Waffles and maple syrup. There are so many great team-ups throughout history, but few should excite shooters more than Fiocchi and Hornady. This 223 Rem cartridge was loaded by the old Italian expert, most likely in their Missouri factory. Thanks to engineering technology that the Fiocchi family have honed for well over a century, this round features a supple and annealed brass casing that chambers without issue, a fast to spark Boxer primer, and clean burning propellant. Fiocchi’s loading practices have yielded definitively reliable rounds for every application. With its 55 grain V-MAX projectile by Hornady, this round’s ideal application is varmint hunting -- although we don’t doubt it would underserve a shooter pressed into a self-defense situation. This bullet’s boat tail and sharp polymer tip make it highly aerodynamic, and its concentric jacket and optimal bearing surface grant it superior stability in flight. The V-MAX’s tip extends down into the swaged lead core’s hollow cavity, and upon impact rams inward to unleash positively explosive fragmentation -- even at lower velocities. One of the finest polymer tipped hunting bullets on the market in our opinion!
45 ACP - 155 Grain RHT Frangible - Speer Lawman - 50 Rounds
Even the most cautious shooter is subject to certain dangers when they train. Shooting at steel targets and against hard backdrops presents a real risk of splash-back, where copper and lead fragments ricochet back to do serious damage. Splash-back is also a common problem at indoor ranges, where poor ventilation may also cause toxic lead to linger in a carcinogenic haze! But Speer’s Lawman line of ammunition works to make all those risks moot. This 45 ACP cartridge features Speer’s 155 grain Reduced Hazard Training projectile. The frangible bullet is comprised of 100 percent compressed copper particles, which are hardened but not fused together in a process called sintering. The RHT accordingly stays intact as it feeds and fires, but crushes itself into powder when it slaps a steel target or other hard surface. And in conjunction with this round’s heavy metal free Clean-Fire primer, the RHT poses no threat of producing airborne lead that could have accumulated indoors. This round’s lightweight bullet grants it a fast muzzle velocity, although you will find Speer’s training ammo reliably mimics many other conventional self-defense loads. Speer gives their RHT a distinctive pattern on its tip for easy identification, and complements it with a new brass case and clean burning propellant for superior functionality in a semi-auto.
