Ranger Bonded ammo is made by Winchester so that everyday obstacles can’t prevent law enforcement officers from doing their jobs. If you’d like an intensely reliable round for your everyday carry, you should stock up too!

This 45 ACP cartridge features a 230 grain projectile, standard for its caliber. The bullet’s core and jacket are indeed bonded together, so penetration through a layer of steel or auto glass won’t cause it to lose so much weight that it can’t burrow deeply into a threat. As the bullet penetrates a soft target, its carefully engineered nose cavity unleashes wide, rapid, and consistent expansion, even if it has already beaten a barrier.

Winchester’s barrier-busting bullet is paired well with the American Legend’s top of the line supporting components. These rounds’ efficacy in a fight is guaranteed thanks to their strong and reloadable brass shell casings, sensitive Boxer primers, and uniformly loaded charges of clean burning propellant. Order by the case and you’ll have enough self-defense loads to practice with, thus learning their performance inside and out!

Ballistic Gel Test

Ballistics Test Summary

Ballistic gelatin testing is one of the best methods we have available today for predicting the real-world performance of self-defense ammunition. We’ve used Clear Ballistics synthetic gelatin to test over 150 handgun loads, including Winchester 230 Grain. We fired 5 rounds into the gel with a four-layer cloth barrier to determine whether heavy clothing would affect the penetration and expansion characteristics of the bullet. All rounds were fired from a Kahr CW45 to reflect the type of short barreled compact pistols that are most commonly carried by legally armed citizens.

Above, you can find photos of the actual bullets suspended in the test medium. Images of the recovered bullets are below on the left and high-speed footage of the first bullet fired into the gel is below on the right. All of the data we collected from our test of Winchester 230 Grain is in the chart below that along with diagrams that might give you an idea of how this load compares to other .45 ACP (Auto) products.

If you want to see the rest of our ballistic gel test results, all of that data is available in our handy interactive charts at Lucky Gunner Labs.
