PMC Bronze Ammo 45ACP 230gr FMJ – 50 Rounds

PMC Bronze Ammo is manufactured by the Poongsan Corporation, a South Korean company that dates back to 1968 and has grown to become one of the world’s largest manufacturers and suppliers of ammunition [citation:5][citation:3]. PMC stands for “Precision-Made Cartridges,” and the Bronze line lives up to that name with reliable performance at an affordable price [citation:5]. This PMC Bronze Ammo .45 ACP load is engineered for shooters who demand consistent performance and value during range sessions and training.

This PMC Bronze Ammo features a 230 grain full metal jacket projectile and reloadable brass casings [citation:1][citation:6].

All PMC cartridges must pass through the rigorous inspection of an electronic powder check station. If the propellant in any cartridge varies by as little as two-tenths of one grain, the system stops, and that cartridge is discarded [citation:1][citation:8]. No other ammunition manufacturer can assure greater uniformity and reliability than PMC [citation:1].

Perfect for range training, target practice, competition, and recreational shooting. This classic military “ball” ammunition has proven itself as the original .45 ACP load [citation:2].
