Winchester Super X 45 Colt 250gr Lead Flat Nose Cowboy Action Ammo

The Winchester Super X 45 Colt delivers consistent performance for cowboy action shooting with reduced-velocity loads that minimize recoil while maintaining reliable cycling. This 250-grain lead flat nose ammunition provides the authentic feel competitors demand without the harsh report of full-power loads.

What Makes This Different

Specifically engineered for cowboy action shooting, this ammunition features reduced-velocity loads that generate approximately 725 fps muzzle velocity compared to standard 45 Colt rounds at 900+ fps. The lead flat nose bullet design ensures reliable feeding in lever-action rifles and single-action revolvers while delivering consistent point of impact. Winchester's quality control processes maintain velocity variations within 25 fps across the entire production run.

Key Features

• 250-grain lead flat nose bullet optimized for cowboy action competition
• Reduced-velocity loads minimize recoil and muzzle blast for faster follow-up shots
• Clean-burning powder reduces fouling in lever-action and revolver actions

This ammunition excels in competitive cowboy action shooting where speed and accuracy matter. The reduced recoil allows shooters to maintain sight picture between shots while the flat nose bullet profile feeds smoothly through tubular magazines. Range testing shows consistent 2-inch groups at 25 yards from quality revolvers, with minimal leading in barrel rifling even after extended shooting sessions.
