Looking through some past notes, they compare to a lot of other brands fps wise on the chrono. I've went through quite a number of 250 packs of these. They work fine, IMO.

Jimmy, even if that ammo doesn't expand as perfectly as the pictures show some bullets they are already almost a half inch wide and heavy. They will work well, it's a 45 after all.
