For sale or trade: .45 ACP ammo loaded with lead semi-wadcutters.

[Recumbent ReCycler]

I have a whole bunch of .45 ACP ammo that is loaded with lead semi-wadcutters.  Unfortunately it doesn't always feed reliably from semiauto pistols, so I don't want to deal with it.  If you have a revolver that is chambered in .45 ACP, these would be ideal for target shooting.  I would be willing to sell them for less than you can find round nose or hollow point ammunition selling for.  I've fired about a hundred of them, and other than the feeding issues, have had no problems.  If you are interested in buying some or all of them, contact me and we can discuss price or barter options.

The .45 ACP is probably the most common .45 ammunition as it is used in most 1911 pistols, grease guns, MAC-10s, Thompson Submachine guns, and many popular handguns.
