Hello everyone. I'm a long time lurker, first time poster. Let me first say that I appreciate the wealth of information I've taken from this website (usually stumbled upon by various google searches) over the last few years!
I've been doing some searching online to find .45 Colt factory-made self defense ammo that is not considered plus P (ie, one that I can be sure falls within SAAMI specs). The most popular SD .45 Colt ammo I have found online is the CorBon 200 gr JHP listed at around 1100 FPS, but the manufacturer's website lists this ammunition as plus P.
The revolver I have in .45 Colt is a Ruger New Vaquero. While I certainly don't consider it my primary home defense tool, the only handguns I own do happen to be single action revolvers; so I'd like to know what's available in the way of SD ammunition that the .45 New Vaquero could safely digest.
Thanks!
