Nosler's ASP line was built specifically for self-defense and duty use, and this 185-grain .45 semi-jacketed hollow point carries that same design intent — reliable expansion at typical .45 ACP velocities without the erratic performance some hollow points show at moderate pressures. The exposed lead nose, combined with a jacket that stops short of the tip, lets the bullet open consistently on impact rather than failing to expand like some hollow points pushed into a defensive role at handgun velocities. At 185 grains, it's a well-established weight for .45 ACP standard-pressure loads, giving reloaders a proven starting point for duty or personal-defense ammunition. Available in a 1,000-count box for reloaders producing .45 ACP defensive rounds in volume, whether for range testing, plinking, or carry rotation.
