The Buffalo Bore Personal Defense Strictly Business 45ACP +P ammunition delivers enhanced terminal performance through precision-loaded 230-grain Full Metal Jacket Flat Nose projectiles. This premium defensive ammunition generates higher velocities than standard pressure loads while maintaining reliable feeding and extraction in semi-automatic pistols.
What Makes This Different
Buffalo Bore's +P loading pushes the 230-grain FMJ-FN bullet to approximately 950 fps from a 5-inch barrel, significantly faster than standard 45ACP loads that typically achieve 830 fps. The flat nose design creates larger permanent wound channels compared to round nose bullets while the full metal jacket construction ensures deep penetration through barriers. Each cartridge uses flash-suppressed powder and premium brass cases rated for multiple reloads.
Key Features
- 230-grain Full Metal Jacket Flat Nose bullet for maximum penetration
- +P pressure loading generates 20% higher velocity than standard loads
- Flash-suppressed powder reduces muzzle flash in low-light conditions

This ammunition excels in personal defense scenarios where barrier penetration and deep tissue penetration are priorities. Law enforcement agencies specify similar loadings for duty use due to the consistent expansion and penetration characteristics. The flat nose profile feeds reliably in 1911-pattern pistols and modern striker-fired designs while the +P pressure ensures adequate expansion at extended ranges.
