    Yes. IRC, current incarnation is Ranger SXT, just not black

    Frozen in 2015, it is falling out of date and I can no longer edit the content. But much of it is still good!

          A lot of 9mm is better than Blacktalon. It's from a whole generation ago...

            I was on Gun broker and was surprised at what they are selling for, I have two original boxes of it in 40 SW I was thinking of selling to buy other ammo but now it's pretty hard to find that other ammo.

              Mine is also in.40 but I use it sparingly for testing against other ammo. pTa is correct, stick with the modern stuff for SD.

                  Have all the new stuff I need and I do reload for it, have plenty of components to keep me going but since Black Talon have a cult following I figured why not sell and use the bucks for something else like .380 I could use.

                    I'm going to start loading my Black Talons in my EDC weapons. I figure with the publicity these stupid ammo laws are going to get (extremely lethal), all I'll have to tell attackers is that I'm armed with Black Talons and they will drop their weapons, pee their pants, and run off seeking police to intervene.

                      I agree. Sell them and buy what you want. New generation ammo is better as said by others. Someone will buy them at a crazy price. Better ammo on the market now days.

                          I'm not I bought this years ago when it was the ammo to have, it's been stored well and when I saw the crazy prices I figured why not, I'd trade my two boxes for two boxes (50) for .380 ammo.

                              no longer made


                              are they legal
                              yes - yes yes.

                              as is said Ranger SXT is the same bullet just different color. also the WInchester PDX is jus the next gen bonded.

                              I have a great source for 45 Ranger SXT if you pm me. I keep forgetting to post it inthe deals section where it will be gone on a day I think.
