Product Overview
This Atomic .45 Colt load hits the sweet spot for cowboy action shooting and heritage revolver enthusiasts. The 200-grain LRNFP (Lead Round Nose Flat Point) bullet, paired with its moderate 800 fps velocity, delivers just enough punch for consistent accuracy without overwhelming recoil. When you're running stage after stage in competition, this combination helps you stay on target without wearing yourself down.
The brass casing and traditional LRNFP profile make this round particularly well-suited for older revolvers and lever guns chambered in .45 Colt. If you're shooting a cherished Single Action Army or period-correct replica, these rounds provide the authentic experience while maintaining safe pressure levels. The flat point profile feeds reliably in tubular magazines, making it a practical choice for your lever-action companion.
At 284 ft-lbs of muzzle energy, this load strikes an ideal balance for paper punching and steel targets. The lead construction and moderate velocity reduce splashback concerns on steel, while the flat nose creates clean, round holes in paper targets for easy scoring. For shooters who split their range time between traditional single-actions and lever guns, these rounds deliver consistent performance across platforms without the need to stock multiple loads.
- 200gr LRNFP profile feeds reliably in lever-action rifles and revolvers

- 284 ft-lbs of energy makes it effective for home defense without excessive penetration
- Lower velocity limits effective range compared to higher-power loads
- Lead bullet design not ideal for indoor range use due to lead exposure
- LRNFP profile may collect debris in cylinder when carried for extended periods
