The .45 ACP (Automatic Colt ... for 9mm Parabellum and .40 S&W, 37,500 psi [259 MPa] for 10mm Auto ... and low velocities paradoxically generates less recoil than 9mm ...
The felt recoil of a normal handgun in .38 Super is similar to the .45 ACP, but the higher pressure in the .38 Super provides more gas pressure for muzzle brakes. The .38 Super caliber became popular in the early 1980s, and has continued to be popular in the open division after its introduction in the 1993 season.
Factory ammo is loaded to +P .45 levels, but the lighter bullet weights make recoil comparable to .45 hardball loads. Felt recoil is a little sharper but still very controllable. [5] Because of its relatively high velocity for a handgun round, the .400 Corbon offers a very flat trajectory, which in turn allows the firearms chambered for it more ...
As the FBI was adopting a 10mm cartridge closer in bullet weight and velocity to the .45 ACP, there was a need for large amounts of newly built ammunition of this type. This requirement was later submitted to Federal Premium Ammunition for production and further review. This became known as the "10mm Lite", or "10mm FBI" load, or attenuated ...
The .40 S&W cartridge has been popular with law enforcement agencies in the United States, Canada, Australia, and Brazil. While possessing nearly identical accuracy, [14] drift and drop as the 9mm Parabellum, it has an energy advantage [15] over the 9mm Parabellum [16] and .45 ACP, [17] and a more manageable recoil than the 10mm Auto cartridge.

The .460 Rowland / 11.43×24mm is a rimless, straight walled handgun cartridge designed in 1997 [1] by Johnny Rowland and developed in conjunction with Clark Custom Guns as a derivative of the .45 ACP [2] with the goal of producing a cartridge which can achieve true .44 Magnum [3] ballistic performance and be fired from a semi-automatic platform.
.45 ACP Hydra-Shok, .45 ACP Hydra-Shok (reduced recoil), 9mm Hydra-Shok.22 LR HP, 9mm Hydra-Shok, 9mm FMJ. Hydra-Shok is a type of hollow-point projectile made by Federal Premium Ammunition. It was originally patented by ammunition designer Tom Burczynski.
Essentially, the .45 Super is based on a .451 Detonics [2] case trimmed to .45 ACP length. Pioneered by writers Dean Grennell and the late Tom Ferguson, the .45 Super raised the performance level for .45 ACP-chambered autos beyond that of the .45 ACP+P and even the 10mm Auto. Triton logo
