Product Overview

Let's cut straight to the chase - CCI's Blazer .45 ACP 230gr FMJ isn't trying to reinvent the wheel. Instead, it delivers exactly what experienced shooters need: reliable performance at a price point that keeps your range sessions going longer. With its traditional 230-grain bullet moving at 830 fps, you're getting that classic .45 ACP push-back without the sharp snap of higher-pressure loads. It's like having a seasoned training partner who shows up on time and doesn't waste your money.

During range sessions, these rounds really prove their worth. That moderate 352 ft-lbs of muzzle energy means less battering on your pistol's frame and springs, while still cycling reliably in everything from vintage 1911s to modern polymer platforms. The full metal jacket profile feeds smoothly and shoots clean, letting you focus on trigger control and sight alignment instead of dealing with malfunctions. Each round hits with enough authority to give you proper feedback without beating up your wrists during those hundred-round training blocks.

Here's what sets this ammunition apart - it's built for the shooter who measures success by rounds downrange, not box appearance. Whether you're drilling failure-to-stop scenarios or working on your Bill drills, these rounds deliver consistent point of impact without the premium price tag. And unlike some budget options that leave your barrel looking like a chimney, CCI's clean-burning powder keeps fouling minimal. Perfect for those weekend warriors who'd rather spend their money on more ammunition than cleaning supplies.

Strengths
  • Reduced pressure load decreases wear on firearms during extended practice sessions
  • Consistent low-velocity profile helps develop better recoil management skills
  • Gentle extraction cycle promotes better brass preservation for reloaders
  • Moderate power level reduces fatigue during high-volume training
Limitations
  • Below-average velocity may affect cycling in cold weather conditions
  • Lower power factor limits competitiveness in certain shooting sports divisions
  • Modest energy output requires more precise shot placement compared to hotter loads
