Buffalo Bore 460 Rowland ammunition(460 Rowland Ammo In Stock )   loaded with the highest quality components to produce great accuracy and also performance. Buffalo Bore began to offer this load at the ever growing request of numerous customers. With performance like this it is easy to see why the 460 Rowland is quickly growing in popularity. This ammunition is new production, non-corrosive, in boxer primed, reloadable brass cases.

The 460 Rowland, as we load it, is squarely at mid-44 magnum power levels. This means that a person can now carry a 1911 style combat pistol that has the power of a 44 mag. revolver, but is slimmer, faster to reload, faster to shoot and also holds nine rounds instead of a revolver’s six. The 460 Rowland casing is simply a 45 ACP case that has been slightly lengthened so it won’t chamber in a 45 ACP chamber. It also has a stronger web area in the casing, so as to avoid “blow outs”.

More On 460 Rowland Ammo

To acquire 460 Rowland test guns, I sent two of my 1911 45 acp pistols to Clark Custom Guns and also had them install their 460 Rowland conversion kits. To date the converted 1911’s work great. I can fire a 255gr. hard cast bullet @ 1300 fps or a 230gr. FMJ-FN bullet @ 1350 fps. What a great “woods” pistol that still maintains combat pistol qualities.
We are using flash suppressed powders in each 460 Rowland load, so that if you have to shoot in the dark, the muzzle flash will not blind the shooter and we feel this feature is a big tactical advantage.

Note my real world velocities (below) from real world pistols, not laboratory test barrels.
