Hornady .45 Long Colt Cowboy Ammo FAQ:

This ammo is best suited for revolvers with barrel lengths between 4 to 7.5 inches. This range provides a good balance between maintaining muzzle velocity and achieving stable, accurate shots.

You can expect group sizes of around 2 to 3 inches at 25 yards, making this ammo a solid choice for both target practice and varmint shooting.

While not specifically designed for suppressors, the subsonic velocity of this ammo can reduce noise when used with a suppressor, but the exact sound levels will depend on your setup.

The felt recoil is moderate, typical for .45 Long Colt rounds, making it comfortable for extended shooting sessions.

This ammo is not recommended for larger game due to its non-expanding bullet and moderate muzzle energy, which are better suited for small game.
