The Remington UMC .45 ACP 230 Grain Full Metal Jacket is a factory-loaded centerfire pistol cartridge featuring a 230-grain full metal jacket projectile, reloadable brass casing, and Boxer non-corrosive primer. Packaged in a 50-round box, this load provides a straightforward configuration for compatible .45 ACP firearms and range applications.
Each cartridge features a 230-grain FMJ projectile. The full metal jacket design surrounds the projectile with a metal jacket, creating a conventional bullet profile that's commonly associated with range and target ammunition. The 230-grain bullet weight is a well-established specification for the .45 ACP cartridge and provides a useful reference when comparing different loads.
The cartridges use brass cases, a durable and widely used material for centerfire pistol ammunition. The cases are specified as reloadable and utilize Boxer primers. Experienced reloaders may retain suitable spent brass for potential reuse with appropriate equipment, components, and published load data.
Remington lists a muzzle velocity of 835 feet per second and muzzle energy of 356 foot-pounds for this load. Actual velocity and energy can vary depending on barrel length, firearm configuration, ammunition lot, environmental conditions, and other factors, so these figures should be treated as published reference specifications.
The 50-round box provides a practical quantity for range sessions, target practice, training, or maintaining an ammunition supply. The UMC designation identifies this cartridge as part of Remington's established UMC product line, while the .45 ACP chambering, 230-grain FMJ projectile, brass casing, and Boxer primer clearly define its basic configuration.
The .45 ACP, also known as .45 Auto, is a long-established centerfire pistol cartridge. Users should always verify that their firearm is specifically chambered for .45 ACP and follow the firearm manufacturer's recommendations before loading or firing ammunition.
Proper storage and handling are essential with all ammunition. Cartridges should be kept in a cool, dry location and handled according to the recommendations of the firearm and ammunition manufacturers. Users should also comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws concerning ammunition purchase, possession, transportation, storage, and use.
With its 230-grain FMJ projectile, reloadable brass casing, Boxer non-corrosive primer, published 835 fps muzzle velocity, and 356 ft.-lbs. muzzle energy, the Remington UMC .45 ACP provides a clearly specified factory-loaded option in a convenient 50-round package.
