The '''.451 Detonics Magnum''', or simply the '''.451 Detonics''', is a pistol cartridge similar to (but slightly longer than) the [[.45 ACP]]. It uses a reinforced case to handle higher pressure loads. Its parent case is the [[.45 Winchester Magnum]] (which is 30.4mm long), trimmed down to 0.942 inches (23.9 mm). It was deliberately made to be longer than the [[.45 ACP]] cartridge [11.43x23mm] to avoid accidental chambering and/or safety issues.

The cartridge was available with 185 grain (11.98 gram) and 200 grain (12.95 gram) bullets. Like both the [[.45 ACP]] and [[.45 Winchester Magnum]], the .451 Detonics also utilizes a .452 caliber projectile.
