Allstar/Magnus Swaged Lead Bullets .45 cal .452" 200 gr SWC 500/ct

If you're loading .45 ACP for target practice, plinking, or recreational shooting, Magnus swaged lead bullets offer a proven, economical alternative to jacketed rounds. These .452" diameter, 200-grain semi-wadcutter (SWC) bullets are cast from a hard alloy formulation—91% lead, 4% tin, and 5% antimony—that resists leading in most .45 handguns while remaining cost-effective for high-volume shooting. Each box contains 500 bullets, giving reloaders a substantial supply for range sessions or practice ammunition development.

The SWC profile is a classic design favored by handloaders who want predictable performance at moderate velocities. The alloy hardness allows you to push these bullets to around 1200 feet per second without excessive bore fouling—a real advantage if you're running suppressed or shooting indoors where lead exposure matters. The hard-cast construction also means these bullets won't shatter on steel targets, making them practical for plate racks and reactive berm setups.

Magnus bullets are manufactured with precision machinery to ensure consistent diameter and weight from round to round, which translates to better accuracy and more predictable loads in your reloading process. Whether you're a serious competitive shooter fine-tuning loads or someone who simply wants to stretch your reloading budget without sacrificing quality, these swaged lead bullets deliver straightforward, reliable performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use these .45 ACP bullets in a suppressed pistol?

Yes. The hard-cast alloy is specifically formulated to minimize leading at moderate velocities, making these bullets a practical choice for suppressed shooting where bore fouling is a concern. The 200-grain SWC can be loaded to around 1200 feet per second in most .45 ACP handguns without excessive lead buildup.

Will these bullets shatter on steel targets?

No. Unlike softer cast bullets, Magnus's hard-cast alloy construction is designed not to shatter when hitting steel. This makes them suitable for plate racks and steel berm shooting.

How many bullets are in each box?

Each box contains 500 bullets, providing a substantial supply for reloaders who shoot frequently or are developing and testing loads.

Are these swaged bullets suitable for competitive target shooting?

Yes. The SWC profile and consistent manufacturing make these bullets predictable for handloaders working up accurate target loads. The hard alloy allows you to control velocity while maintaining good bore condition.
