This is a standard breakdown. There are many types of rounds, all with slightly different weights. This is the most popular variable. Hope my math is on point!

1 Gram = 0.0352739619 ounces

1 gram = 1000 milligrams

1 grain = 64.79891 milligrams

(230 Grain .45 Slug)= 230x64.79891= 14903.7493mg/1000g= 14.9037493g= 0.5257142849753517oz

(85 Grain Standard .45 Casing)= 85x64.79891= 5507.90735mg/1000g= 5.50790735g= 0.19428571401263oz

(5 Grains of Powder)= 5x64.79891= 323.99455mg/1000g= 0.32399455g= 0.0114285714125076oz

(4.524 Grain Primer)= 4.524x= 293.15026884mg/1000g= 0.29315026884g= 0.0103405714140369oz

Total = 324.524 Grains

21028.80146884 Milligrams

21.02880146884 Grams

Can you shoot 45 auto and 45 ACP?

ACP means Automatic Colt Pistol. .45 ACP and .45 Auto are the same cartridge. .45 Colt and .45 Auto Rim are a revolver cartridge. .45 GAP (Glock Auto Pistol) is a shorter round than the ACP, and does not interchange with it.


Can you use 45 acp ammo in a tactical rifle?

If it's chambered for the .45 ACP cartridge, yes.


Are acp and gap rounds the same?

No. The .45 Automatic Colt Pistol (ACP) cartridge is longer the the .45 Glock Automatic Pistol (GAP) cartridge. Since they headspace on the MOUTH of the cartridge case, they cannot be interchanged.


Can you shoot a 45 auto round through a 45 gun?

You can fire a .45 ACP cartridge through a .45 ACP pistol - and only a .45 ACP pistol. The various .45 cartridges (.45 ACP, .45 Long Colt, .45 GAP, etc.) are not interchangeable with each other.


What is the difference in 45 acp and 45 gap?

.45 gap is a shorter cartridge and can only be safely fired from a gun chambered for that specific cartridge.


What is the meaning of ACP?

'ACP' means Automatic Colt Pistol. A 1911, for example, would chamber a .45 ACP cartridge.


Can ammo that does not say acp be used in a hand gun that says acp n gun?

Yes- IF IT IS THE CORECT CARTRIDGE. .45 ACP (Automatic Colt Pistol) may also be known as .45 Auto. It is NOT the same cartridge as .45 GAP (Glock Auto Pistol) or .45 Colt (revolver cartridge).


Is the Thompson m1a1 chambered for the 9mm round?

No. It is chambered for the .45 ACP cartridge.


Can you use 45auto ammo in a 45gap?

No. The .45 ACP catridge is longer than the .45 GAP cartridge.


Can you fire 45 acp in a glock 21?

The Glock 21 does fire the .45 ACP, as does the Glock 30. You're probably thinking of the Glock 37, 38, and 39, which fire the .45 GAP cartridge - those cannot fire a .45 ACP.


Can you shoot 45 acp ammo in a Glock 37?

Nope. Matter of fact, you can't even load it. The .45 Automatic Colt Pistol (ACP) cartridge is longer than the .45 Glock Automatic Pistol cartridge (GAP). And the model 37 IS in .45 GAP. Both rounds headspace off the case MOUTH- the .45 ACP is too long for the slide to go into battery (close the action). And, with the exception of some revolvers, you cannot shoot .45 GAP in an .45 ACP firearm.
