The Buffalo Bore 35C20 Personal Defense ammunition delivers devastating stopping power in the potent 460 Rowland caliber, engineered for serious defensive applications. This premium ammunition transforms compatible 1911 platforms into formidable defensive tools with energy levels approaching magnum revolver performance.
What Makes This Different
The 460 Rowland cartridge generates approximately 1,300 fps muzzle velocity with 230-grain projectiles, delivering nearly double the energy of standard 45 ACP loads. Buffalo Bore's strict quality control ensures consistent performance shot after shot, while the Full Metal Jacket Flat Nose design provides reliable feeding and deep penetration. This ammunition requires a properly converted 460 Rowland pistol with appropriate barrel and recoil system modifications.
