Description

Underwood Ammo .45 Super 185-grain Jacketed Hollow Point ammunition (part no. 622) loads a high-pressure .45-caliber cartridge for shooters who want more velocity and energy than a standard .45 ACP can deliver. Underwood Ammo builds .45 Super to the same case dimensions as .45 ACP but at significantly higher pressure, so it demands a pistol specifically set up or rated for the cartridge, typically with a stiffer recoil spring. The 185-grain jacketed hollow point is built to expand reliably at that added velocity, and nickel-plated brass cases stand up to the corrosion that comes with daily carry or long-term storage. Reloadable cases add value for handloaders willing to work with a higher-pressure round. Among handgun ammunition.45 Super is the answer for shooters who want .45-caliber diameter with far more punch behind it.

Key Specifications

  • The caliber is .45 Super, a high-pressure .45-caliber cartridge that demands a pistol rated for it.
  • The bullet weighs 185 grains, lighter than standard .45 ACP loads to maximize velocity.
  • The bullet is a Jacketed Hollow Point, built to expand reliably at .45 Super velocities.
  • Expansion is driven by the hollow point cavity, peeling the jacket back on impact for a wider wound channel.
  • The cases are nickel-plated brass, resisting corrosion through carry and storage.
  • The brass is reloadable, adding value for handloaders working with the higher-pressure cartridge.
  • Each box holds 20 rounds, a standard count for range or carry rotation.
  • The cost runs about $1.37 per round, reasonable pricing for a specialty high-pressure defensive load.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I shoot .45 Super in a standard .45 ACP pistol? Only if the pistol is specifically rated for .45 Super, which typically requires a stiffer recoil spring and sometimes a stronger frame or barrel.

Does the 185gr JHP expand at .45 Super velocities? Yes, the added velocity over standard .45 ACP helps this jacketed hollow point expand reliably on impact.

Why nickel-plated cases? Nickel plating resists corrosion better than plain brass, useful for rounds carried daily or stored long-term.
