Speer 4485 .451 Caliber 300gr JSP Handgun Bullets - 100 Count

The Speer 4485 delivers consistent terminal performance for .45 caliber handgun reloaders seeking reliable expansion and accuracy. These 300-grain jacketed soft point bullets feature Speer's proven construction methods that have earned the trust of competitive shooters and hunting enthusiasts for decades.

What Makes This Different

Speer's jacketed soft point design combines a lead core with a precisely drawn copper jacket that controls expansion while maintaining weight retention. The exposed lead tip initiates reliable expansion at handgun velocities, while the jacket prevents over-expansion that can reduce penetration. This balanced approach delivers more consistent terminal ballistics compared to full metal jacket or hollow point alternatives in this weight class.

Key Features

• 300-grain weight optimized for .45 Colt and .454 Casull applications
• Jacketed soft point construction for controlled expansion
• .451 inch diameter with tight tolerances for consistent accuracy
• Lead core bonded to copper jacket for weight retention
• Exposed soft point tip for reliable expansion initiation
• Uniform jacket thickness for balanced flight characteristics
• 100-count packaging for efficient reloading sessions

These bullets excel in hunting applications where deep penetration and expansion are both critical. The 300-grain weight carries substantial momentum for large game, while the soft point design ensures reliable expansion on impact. Target shooters appreciate the consistent accuracy these bullets deliver at extended ranges, with the heavy weight helping maintain stability in crosswinds.
