The targets were not more than 15 meters out. I don’t recall if I shot it cheeked using sights, or fired the magazine in short bursts from the hip. I simply do not recall any blowback that I could feel at all with it. I don’t recall how I shot the MP5SD I did. That may be why I don’t recall any blowback of gases. For an old fat guy like me, that means I go to the sights at pretty short range - anything much past about five yards. When I shoot a handgun for self-defense practice, I use pretty close to a point of shoulder two hand hold, modified to straight isosceles when the target is beyond my ability to reliably hit just looking down the top of the pistol, and sights are used. My son just retired from 27 years with the CHP and while discussing this load, neither of us could think of any department in California, although there probably are a couple, where the general issue handgun was. At least that is my perception based on what police carry in California. 45 since it is (although my favorite) not that big with LE anymore, compared to 9 mm and. In a country where silencers are Federally controlled, and in some states simply banned, I am surprised there is enough market out there, especially for. The market for subsonic ammo here is probably tiny. I was surprised my son found it in California, since except for LE, silencers are flat-out illegal here, and even though there is a licensing procedure for them for “civilians” with 36 years in the gun business and 63 years as a serious shooter, I have never heard of anyone, simply on an individual “I want to own one” basis, being granted that license. It probably will sell, whether actually better or not. Always illegal in California, and never could see much legitimate use for them for regular shooters, or even police, for that matter. I don’t have much experience with suppressors. That, of course, was without a suppressor but the point is that the faster powders, to the “naked ear” anyway, don’t seem to reduce muzzle blast to any appreciably lower level. I do know that fast burning powders like Bullseye or 231 still have plenty of “sound signature” even in long barreled pistols, since I have used both in an 8-3/8" barrel Smith and Wesson Model 27, and even with target loads, there was still plenty of bark. in a silencer rather than reduce those conditions. Regarding using faster burning powders, I would think that they would concentrate heat, etc. 45s, since I assume they would make for “easier pistol cleanup?” If the propellants used make for “easier suppressor cleanup” why don’t they use them in all their. 45s of which I am aware are, rather than in a blow-back operated pistol. I am not sure I understand what “propellant blowback” is when a cartridge is used in a locked-breech pistol, as all.
“Efficient burning propellants reduce uncomfortable propellant blowback.” “Clean propellants for easier suppressor cleanup and performance.” Reported here only because it is the first of this “brand” from Federal that I had heard of.ĭK - This is what the box says about the propellants: The cartridges by the way, are in normal “FEDERAL 45 AUTO” headstamped, brass cases, with nickel boxer primer.
Leaves me to believe that this stuff is nothing but hype, right up there for silliness with the Zombie ammunition. 45 Auto 230 grain bullet ammunition is subsonic. Further, as already mentioned, the bullet shows no revolutionary bullet shape. 45 auto round listed at 850 FPS depending on temperature, altitude, barrel length, etc., it is hard to see why this load is anything special in regard to silencer use.
45 auto ammunition, non-Plus P, of this bullet weight), and the list MV for this “Suppressor” ammo is 840 FPS, probably within the normal deviation for any. 45 Auto caliber, Index 45D, has a listed MV of 850 FPS (pretty much the norm for all. Since the speed of sound 1,126 FPS (in dry air, at 20 degrees Celsius), and Federals normal “Hardball” 230 grain FMJ RN loading in. What amuses me is the hype on the box - “Subsonic to maximize noise reduction Bullet weights and configurations are carefully selected for suppressor use, etc.” This ammo, by the way, ins Federal American Eagle Index Number AE45SUP1. The bullets are GM FMJ RN 230 grain of what appears to the eye to be a very normal ogive and OA seating length. It is a black American Eagle box marked “Suppressor” on top of a drawing of a typical pistol sound suppressor. 45 Auto 230 Grain FMJ RN ammo that my son picked up for our collection and gave to me today.
