GREAT AMMO | 4/3/2016 |
Shot some this morning from a rest @ 15 yds. AMAZING! My CQB Compact that I bought new 15 years ago; put 2 rounds in the same hole @12 oclock, 1 inch high. The recoil and muzzle blast, like a mild target semi wadcutter. Keep up the good work! My 68 year old eyes couldnt believe it.... | ||

Great Ammo! | 5/28/2015 |
Hands down....this is the best .45 cal ammo Ive ever used in my Commander-length pistols. Super accurate and, even more important, very low recoil. Im ordering more today. | ||

This round may have saved my life. | 11/2/2012 |
I always carry my para ordnance warthog everywhere I go. I have always had this load in it. During a muzzle loader hunt in south Georgia I had just gotten out of my climber and my rifle was still slung when a very large rabid dog came charging right toward me. I was able to draw down and place one round cleanly into its throat, dropping it to the ground. Thank God for this accurate and devastatingly effective round. | ||

Very good terminal performance | 5/30/2012 |
From a terminal performance standpoint this is one of the best .45 Auto loads Ive tested delivering above average performance in every category but penetration and there it fell only a half inch short. Its what I carry. | ||

Bill Wilson Carry Load | 160 gr. Barnes TAC-XP, | 3/30/2011 |
This load was accurate, 100% reliable and controllable when fired in 4 inch Wilson, Nighthawk and Ed Brown models. Five total pistols were tested with this round. A Kimber Ultra CDP II 3 inch 1911 was also tested. It reliably handles 230 grain fmj ammo but would consistently jam using the 160 grain Wilson load. Many 3 inch 1911s are notoriously picky regarding what they are fed. | ||

Bill Wilson Carry Load | 1/9/2011 |
This ammo is fantastic. Wilson is not lying when they say this ammo is low flash and low recoil. The flash is similar to a small spark and the recoil is less than 230gr FMJ. I fired two boxes through my Sig P245 and was very impressed. This will be my new carry load and plan on converting my 9mms to Wilson ammo after testing. | ||
