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

A typical .45 caliber pistol cartridge, such as the .45 ACP, generally contains between 185 to 230 grains of bullet weight, depending on the specific load. The "grains" measurement refers to the weight of the bullet itself, not the entire cartridge. For instance, a common weight for .45 ACP bullets is 230 grains. However, the total cartridge weight, including the casing, primer, and powder, will be higher.
There is no 45 apc, but, there is a 45 acp. The 45 Colt is a longer cartridge. There is no 45 apc, but, there is a 45 acp. The 45 Colt is a longer cartridge.
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.
If it's chambered for the .45 ACP cartridge, yes.
No, not all .45 cartridges can be used in a .45 ACP firearm. The .45 ACP (Automatic Colt Pistol) is a specific cartridge designed for semi-automatic pistols, while other .45 cartridges, such as .45 Colt or .45 GAP, have different dimensions and specifications.

'ACP' means Automatic Colt Pistol. A 1911, for example, would chamber a .45 ACP cartridge.
No, you cannot safely fire a .45 ACP cartridge in a .45 Long Colt (LC) revolver. The two cartridges have different dimensions and specifications. The .45 ACP is a rimless cartridge designed for semi-automatic pistols, while the .45 LC is a rimmed cartridge designed for revolvers. Attempting to fire .45 ACP in a .45 LC revolver could result in a dangerous malfunction or damage to the firearm.
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).
No. It is chambered for the .45 ACP cartridge.
