Nosler ASP Suppressor Ready ammunition in .45 ACP (brand part no. 51284) is built for shooters who carry this round for personal or home defense. Nosler backs this load with the quality control shooters expect from a name they already trust. At the heart of this load is the 230 gr bullet with a Jacketed Hollow Point (JHP) design, matched to the .45 ACP platform shooters already run. In our handgun ammunition lineup, this is the Nosler load built for that job.
