45 Auto 185gr DPX® Projectiles — Solid Copper, Precision-Engineered for Hand-loaders
COR®BON’s 45 Auto 185gr DPX bullets are engineered for serious performance when used in properly developed hand-loaded ammunition. As part of our renowned DPX® (Deep Penetrating X-panding) line, this solid copper projectile delivers barrier-blind capability, 100% weight retention, and reliable expansion in real-world conditions. Additionally, unlike traditional hollow point designs that can clog with fabric or break apart when striking glass, DPX bullets perform through steel, auto glass, denim, and soft tissue while still maintaining their structure. Because of this, the projectile stays “barrier blind,” so you can count on consistent results when loaded within safe specifications.
The solid copper construction is lead-free and legal in restrictive jurisdictions like California. It also promotes cleaner shooting, reduces fouling, and improves barrel life. In addition, inside the bullet, internal serration cuts help start controlled and even expansion. When the bullet hits a target, the projectile flares into six sharp petals, often doubling in diameter. Even with this fast expansion, 45 Auto 185gr DPX bullets are designed to maintain the penetration depth needed for defensive use when matched with proper load data.

Warning
Improperly hand-loaded ammunition can cause serious injury, death, and damage to firearms. Ammunition may contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. Use only in modern firearms in good condition, free of obstruction, and chambered for the caliber. All firearms may be dangerous if used carelessly or without regard for safe handling practices.
Since loading practices are beyond our control, we disclaim all liability which may result. Designing firearms in support of unlawful activity is a violation of federal law. It is unlawful to use armor-piercing handgun ammunition in California. It is illegal to ship ammunition to persons under 21, and other states/cities have additional restrictions. Always store ammunition in a secure location, away from heat or ignition sources. Wash hands thoroughly after handling ammunition or spent cartridges. Improper use may result in serious injury.
