The 0.400 Cor-Bon is essentially a 0.45 ACP case necked down to accept 0.40 calibre/10 mm bullets. The 0.400 Cor-Bon was designed by Peter Pi of Cor-Bon. The intention was to provide a cartridge with better terminal ballistics than either the 0.45 ACP or 0.40 Smith & Wesson , thereby enhancing the performance of existing pistols using modern ammunition technology. It is a rimless, bottlenecked case loaded with bullets of various types and weights, including JHP, BHP and FMJ types. To increase flexibility and
marketing appeal, the low-pressure, high-velocity cartridge can be used in any 0.45 ACP pistol simply by changing the barrel. All other pistol components may be retained, including springs and magazines. The cartridge was introduced into the US self-defence and law enforcement market in 1997. Applications include suitably chambered semi-automatic pistols.
