G2 Research Civic Duty 45 ACP 164 grain radically invasive projectile G00617 ammo brings G2's distinctive machined-copper nose geometry to a 164-grain 45 ACP cartridge. The bullet is markedly lighter than traditional 230-grain 45 ACP hardball and is shaped around separate pointed trocars rather than a simple jacketed hollow-point cavity.
The multiple projections are intended to depart from a central base on impact, contrasting with the retained expanded profile sought by many conventional JHPs. The behavior of any one projectile cannot be settled from the design drawing alone. The 164-grain ammo carries a published muzzle rating of 1,020 fps, which identifies this specific Civic Duty load.
It would be misleading to treat its projectile behavior as equivalent to the common 230-grain hollow points simply because the chambering is the same. Its unusual bullet profile is a good reason to check feeding from every intended magazine and where it prints against the sights. G2 packs 20 rounds of its 164-grain 45 ACP Civic Duty ammunition, allowing the actual nose geometry to be checked in the selected pistol.
