The Atomic Ammunition 04935 delivers consistent subsonic performance in 45 Colt with a heavy 300-grain lead hollow point design. This ammunition maintains velocities below the sound barrier while providing reliable expansion and stopping power for both hunting and personal defense applications.
What Makes This Different
The 300-grain lead hollow point bullet weight exceeds most standard 45 Colt loads by 50-75 grains, creating deeper penetration and enhanced terminal ballistics. Subsonic velocity eliminates the sonic crack associated with standard ammunition, reducing noise signature by approximately 30-40 decibels when used with appropriate suppressors. The lead construction provides consistent expansion at lower velocities compared to jacketed alternatives.
Key Features
- 300-grain lead hollow point bullet for maximum expansion and energy transfer
- Subsonic velocity reduces noise signature and eliminates sonic crack
- Lead construction optimized for reliable expansion at lower velocities
- 20 rounds per box packaging for convenient range sessions
- Compatible with all 45 Colt firearms including revolvers and lever-action rifles
- Consistent powder charges ensure reliable cycling and accuracy
- Reloadable brass cases for handloading enthusiasts
This ammunition performs effectively in both short-barrel revolvers and longer rifle barrels, maintaining subsonic velocities across different platform lengths. The heavy bullet weight provides excellent penetration through barriers while the hollow point design ensures controlled expansion in soft tissue. Weather-resistant primer sealing protects against moisture in field conditions, while the lead bullet composition reduces barrel fouling compared to plated alternatives.
