Sig Sauer V-Crown by Sierra Handgun Bullets .45 cal .4515" 200 gr JHP Sig Sauer V-Crown 100/ct
The Sig Sauer V-Crown by Sierra Handgun Bullets represents a collaboration between two names serious reloaders trust for .45 ACP ammunition. These .45 caliber 200-grain jacketed hollow point bullets combine Sierra's reputation for consistent accuracy with Sig Sauer's terminal performance standards. Each box of 100 rounds gives you the components to build defensive or range ammunition that delivers both precision and reliable expansion when it matters.
The V-Crown design starts with a stacked hollow point cavity engineered to perform across a range of velocities and engagement distances. What sets this load apart is the cannelure—a groove halfway up the shank that mechanically locks the jacket to the lead core. This design choice means you get maximum weight retention through barriers and consistent expansion at the point of impact, two critical performance factors in defensive ammunition reloading.
Whether you're loading for competition, personal defense training, or general .45 ACP practice, these bullets are sized to standard .4515-inch specifications and work in any properly maintained reloading setup. The 100-count box is the right size for a serious reloader who wants to build a batch without breaking the bank on a massive quantity. Sierra's quality control and the Sig Sauer partnership mean you're not guessing on consistency from round to round.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the cannelure for, and does it matter?
The cannelure is a groove that grips and locks the jacket to the lead core. In a defensive or duty load, this prevents bullet separation and ensures the jacket and core expand together, giving you maximum weight retention and more predictable terminal performance.
Can I use these for .45 ACP target loads, or are they only for defensive reloading?
These bullets work for both. The V-Crown design and Sierra's accuracy standards make them suitable for range practice, training, and competition reloading, as well as defensive applications. Your choice of powder, primer, and overall load specifications determines the purpose.
How many bullets come in a box?
Each box contains 100 bullets, which is a practical quantity for reloaders building a batch of ammunition.
Do these bullets work in all .45 ACP firearms?
Yes, the standard .4515-inch diameter is the specification for .45 ACP. As long as your firearm is in good condition and your reload is within safe parameters, these bullets will function properly.
