Popular Ammo Offerings from Atlanta Arms
- .380 ACP:The .380 ACP, or .380 Automatic Colt Pistol, was designed by John Moses Browning in 1908. Production of the cartridge began in the same year and saw immediate use in Colt’s Model 1903 Pocket Hammerless handgun. The .380 ACP was derived from the .38 ACP, or .38 Auto cartridge which was introduced in 1900 by Browning. Since its introduction, the cartridge has been used in a variety of firearms such as handguns for concealed carry and even submachine guns. Today, the cartridge is still utilized for defensive purposes and benefits from modern, optimized loadings which increase the effectiveness of the round.
- .300 Blackout:The .300 Blackout cartridge has enjoyed popularity for nearly two decades. This intermediate cartridge was developed by Advanced Armament Corporation in 2009 and provides shooters with versatile supersonic and subsonic loadings. The round was designed to be utilized in M4/AR-15 style firearms and utilizes STANAG type magazines. An initial motivation for the development of the round was to potentially replace the current 5.56x45mm NATO cartridge. The round features a tame recoil impulse and low back pressure. These traits make it a favorite among suppressed shooters as one can achieve near “Hollywood quiet” suppression when the right loading, suppressor, and firearm come together.
- .40 S&W:The .40 Smith & Wesson cartridge was introduced in 1990 as part of a collaboration between Smith and Wesson and Winchester. The round is typically denoted by its full name, as .40 S&W, or simply as .40 cal. While effectively a shorter and milder version of the 10mm Auto, the .40 Smith & Wesson is often compared to the 9mm Luger and .45 ACP. The round boasts a greater overall length and projectile size over the 9mm Luger. The .40 Smith & Wesson is capable of higher velocities than the .45 ACP and is ultimately slower than most 9mm Luger loadings. Due to its velocity to projectile size ratio, the .40 Smith & Wesson cartridge is capable of imparting a greater amount of energy on impact. As far as recoil goes, the .40 Smith & Wesson is noticeably snappier than the 9mm Luger and .45 ACP while recoiling less than 10mm Auto.
- .45 ACP:The .45 ACP, or .45 Automatic Colt Pistol, cartridge is the brainchild of prolific firearm designer John Moses Browning. Originally developed in 1904, the cartridge is closely associated with the 1911 pistol, an iconic service pistol chambered in .45 ACP. Beyond its use in handguns, the cartridge is well-known for being used in submachine guns such as the Thompson and M3 “Grease Gun.” The .45 ACP notably served the United States and allied nations throughout both World Wars and in many of the conflicts throughout the 20th century.
Common Atlanta Arms Bullet Types
- Full Metal Jacket (FMJ):Like the name suggests, these types of loadings feature projectiles which are adorned with metal jacketing. This jacket is generally made of copper and will cover the tip and sides of the projectile. Typically, the base of the projectile is left uncoated. These types of loadings are well-suited for range use and are some of the most common types of ammo one will encounter.
- Jacketed Hollow Point (JHP):JHP loadings feature hollow point projectiles which are adorned with a full metal jacket. These loadings are generally found in the form of defensive ammo offerings and are designed to facilitate reliable expansion upon impact. Additionally, these types of loadings are designed to achieve adequate levels of penetration for defensive purposes while not overpenetrating the target and risking collateral damage. A good hollow point loading is one that achieves an appropriate level of penetration while expanding reliably upon impact within the target.
- V-MAX:Loadings of this type feature a premium, specialty V-MAX projectile from Hornady. These projectiles feature polymer tips and are well-suited to varmint hunting applications. V-MAX loadings are also capable of high velocities and flat trajectories, adding to their potency. Projectiles are designed to expand and fragment on impact, resulting in optimal terminal ballistics in varmint hunting applications.
- Lead Round Nose Flat Point (LRNFP): LRNFP loadings feature a flat-nosed, round lead projectile, ensuring safe use in tubular magazines. These are effective for hunting and target shooting.
