The Sierra Sports Master 45 Cal 240 Grain JHC Bullets are a time-tested handgun round for reloaders working with .45 Colt, .45 ACP, and other moderate-velocity .45-caliber cartridges. Introduced in 1977 and refined with Sierra's skived PowerJacket technology in 1984, these 240-grain jacketed hollow cavity projectiles deliver reliable expansion and the consistent accuracy Sierra is known for—whether you're loading for a vintage Colt single-action, a modern Ruger, S&W, or Taurus revolver, or even a .45 ACP semi-auto.
Each box contains 100 bullets ready to reload. The hollow cavity design and PowerJacket construction make these rounds effective for hunting and suitable for moderate-velocity loads up to 1400 fps, so they work across a range of .45-caliber handgun loads. The integral cannelure allows for secure roll crimping, and these bullets can be loaded into .45 Colt cartridges for use in rifles with tubular magazines—a practical advantage if you're running a vintage lever gun or modern replica alongside your handguns.
A word on bore diameter: modern .45 Colt handguns typically have .451-inch bores, though older vintage models may run .454 inches. Sierra engineered these bullets to function in both, though you may need to pay extra attention to case sizing if you're working with older reloading dies. If you're already familiar with Sierra quality and you want a proven, no-nonsense 240-grain .45 that handles both hunting and target work, these are a solid choice.
