Federal American Eagle 45 Colt 225gr JSP Ammo - 50 Round Box

The Federal American Eagle AE45LC delivers consistent performance for 45 Colt revolvers with proven 225-grain jacketed soft point construction. This ammunition combines Federal's quality manufacturing standards with an affordable price point that appeals to both recreational shooters and those building training stockpiles.

What Makes This Different

Federal's American Eagle line uses the same quality control processes as their premium hunting ammunition but focuses on high-volume production to keep costs manageable. The 225-grain jacketed soft point bullet provides controlled expansion while maintaining structural integrity through barriers. Unlike full metal jacket rounds, the soft point design offers improved terminal performance for hunting applications while remaining cost-effective for practice sessions.

Key Features

• 225-grain jacketed soft point bullets for controlled expansion
• Consistent powder charges ensure reliable velocity and accuracy
• Non-corrosive primers extend barrel life and simplify cleaning
• Reloadable brass cases with consistent wall thickness
• 50-round packaging reduces per-round cost for volume shooting
• Compatible with all standard 45 Colt revolvers and lever-action rifles
• Manufactured to SAAMI specifications for chamber safety

Range testing shows this load produces approximately 960 fps from a 7.5-inch revolver barrel with consistent groupings suitable for both target practice and medium game hunting. The moderate pressure loading works safely in vintage Colt Single Action Army revolvers and modern reproductions. Hunters appreciate the bullet's ability to expand reliably on deer-sized game while maintaining enough penetration for ethical harvests.
