About
The .45 Super Ammo is a smokeless powder center fire metallic cartridge that is considered powerful. It was designed and developed in 1988 in the United States. Dimensionally, it is similar to the .45 ACP Ammo, but it has a thicker wall and is loaded to create higher pressures. These changes offer an average of 300 feet per second improvement in the muzzle velocity over the .45 ACP Ammo. Because of the limitation presented by the .45 ACP Ammo, there was a strong need to replace this cartridge with something that delivers a better power and penetration with low recoil and precise accuracy. That's where the .45 Super Ammo came in. The overall length of the .45 Super Ammo is 32.4mm, and the bullet diameter measures 11.5mm. The lightest variant of the .45 Super Ammo is a 185-grain bullet load that can travel at a velocity of 1,300 feet per second and creates an energy level of 694 ft.lbf.
Manufacturer
The .45 Super Ammo was based on the design of the .45 ACP Ammo and was co-created by Tom Fergerson and Ace Hindman in 1988.
Uses
The .45 Super Ammo provides decent power and penetrating capabilities that allow the hunters to hunt medium-sized games such as the deer family easily.
About
The .450 SMC Ammo was launched in the late 2000s and was similar to the .45 Super. The main difference was that this cartridge used a small rifle primer which allowed more brass into the cartridge to provide it with more strength. Despite getting discontinued and fading away, the .450 SMC Ammo is now commercially available in the markets. The .450 SMC Ammo uses a small magnum primer rather than the primer of a standard pistol cartridge which provides plenty of ignition power. Small primer means more brass at the base of the bullet, meaning more strength to the case. The recoil in the lighter variants of the .450 SMC Ammo is pretty similar to the .45 ACP Ammo, but when it comes to heavier rounds, the .450 SMC Ammo provides far more controllable and manageable recoils. People have been praising the manufacturers who brought back the .450 SMC Ammo into the markets because of its performance and reliability to shooters for different purposes.
Manufacturer
The .450 SMC Ammo was originally produced by Triton in the late 2000s but was discontinued. Mike McNett, the founder of Doubletap Ammunition, saw potential in this cartridge and decided to bring it back and better than before.
Uses
The lighter rounds are being used widely for self-defense because they can be shot fast and accurately. The heavier rounds can take down medium-sized game and a few large species in decent range.
