Buffalo Bore Ammunition's Personal Defense Strictly Business 45 Auto Rim +P loads put serious stopping power in a classic revolver platform. This 225-grain wadcutter round is engineered for defensive shooters who rely on .45 Auto Rim revolvers—whether that's a Ruger, S&W, or other wheelgun chambered for the cartridge. The +P rating means you're getting enhanced velocity and energy compared to standard loads, translating to more reliable expansion and deeper penetration where it counts. Buffalo Bore's reputation for quality control and consistency makes this a smart choice for defensive carry or home protection.
The wadcutter profile serves dual purpose: it cuts clean, visible holes in paper for practice and competition, and its flat-nose design promotes reliable feeding and predictable ballistics in revolver cylinders. At 225 grains, you're looking at a substantial, slow-moving projectile that favors penetration and momentum—the opposite end of the spectrum from lighter, faster rounds. This is ammunition built for deliberate, controlled defensive scenarios, not spray-and-pray situations.
Buffalo Bore sources quality brass and reliable primers, then loads and inspects each round to their exacting standards. You get 20 rounds per box with case quantities available for serious users or those who shoot regularly. If your defensive revolver is chambered in .45 Auto Rim, this is worth considering for duty or personal defense use. Always verify your firearm's manual for chamber specifications and pressure ratings before using any ammunition.

.45 Auto Rim is a revolver cartridge, distinct from .45 ACP. It's designed for revolvers with appropriate cylinder chambers, including certain Ruger and S&W models. Always check your revolver's manual or headstamp to confirm it's chambered in .45 Auto Rim before firing any ammunition.
Buffalo Bore Strictly Business loads are marketed as personal defense ammunition. The +P rating and 225-grain wadcutter profile are designed with defensive use in mind. However, the choice of defensive ammunition is a personal decision; ensure it performs reliably in your specific revolver and meets your local laws and carry preferences.
The flat-nose wadcutter design promotes clean, visible holes in paper targets for practice, and provides reliable feeding in revolver cylinders. Its profile also supports consistent ballistics and momentum-focused terminal performance, favoring penetration over velocity.
This product includes 20 rounds per box. Cases contain 12 boxes, for a total of 240 rounds per case.
