This is 45 Colt +P (aka 45 Long Colt +P) ammunition. It is loaded hotter than standard: more recoil, higher muzzle velocity, higher striking energy. The manufacturer warns against firing 45 Colt +P in a post-2004 Ruger Vaquero (reason: frame too small). The manufacturer does recommend firing this ammo in the following:
• Ruger Blackhawk
• Ruger Super Blackhawk
• Ruger Redhawk
• Pre-2004 Ruger Vaquero
• Bisley
• Model 1892
• Winchester 1894
• Marlin 1894
SAFETY WARNING: COMPLETE. With that out of the way, let’s appreciate how useful this 45 Colt +P ammo is for hunting and defending against American game. Take deer with your lever gun. Swat black bears with your wheel gun. It’s all in a day’s work for this overpressure round’s 265 wide flat nose gas check projectile.
The WFNGC is a hard lead bullet with a mostly flat tip (not a wadcutter per se, but shaped more like one than an LRN). Its broad meplat helps the WFNGC chop a deep hole into dense, fibrous muscle (perfect for defense against barrel-chested beasts with well-protected vitals). The WFNGC’s gas check has one purpose: trap propellant gasses behind the bullet while it is still inside the barrel, which provides higher-velocity performance. Reloadable. Made in the USA.
