Hornady Custom .45 ACP 200gr XTP Ammo Ballistics
Brass Case • XTP • MPN: 9112
Solved from this product's advertised 900 fps, 200gr bullet and G1 BC 0.151, with the sight 0.5" over the bore at standard conditions. Compare every zero for .45 ACP.
How to read it: filled circles are the near and far zero, where the bullet's path crosses the line of sight;the triangle is the peak (max ordinate). The shaded band is the 4" vital zone, ±2" either side of the line of sight. The dashed line marks the edge of the hold-dead-on window. The chart is zoomed to where the zero matters; the tables below run to 100 yards.
.45 ACP 200gr with a 10-yard zero

Product Overview
Hornady Custom 200-grain XTP is a jacketed hollow point .45 ACP load built around Hornady's XTP bullet. The XTP is Hornady's conventional expanding handgun bullet, loaded here at standard pressure in a plain brass case. It leaves the muzzle at 900 fps with 360 ft-lbs of energy.
Zeroed at 25 yards, it lands 2.3 inches low at 50 yards, where it is still moving 856 fps. Estimated recoil in a compact pistol is 8.1 ft-lbs, 2.4 under Federal HST 230-grain JHP.
If you're cross-shopping, Hornady Critical Defense 185-grain FTX leaves at the same 900 fps with 27 ft-lbs less from its lighter bullet. Federal HST 230-grain JHP is 10 fps slower with 44 ft-lbs more, from a bullet 30 grains heavier.
- Keeps 325 of its 360 ft-lbs at 50 yards, 90 percent of the muzzle figure
- Standard pressure, so it runs in a pistol with no +P rating
- Subsonic, so a suppressed pistol has no sonic crack
- 93 ft-lbs behind Speer Gold Dot 185-grain JHP at the muzzle, from a heavier bullet
- Hornady states no purpose for the Custom line, so nothing in its own labelling places this load as a carry or hunting round
