All CCI Blazer .45 Colt 200gr JHP Ammo Specs
Product Overview
CCI's Blazer .45 Colt load pairs a hefty 200-grain JHP projectile with an aluminum case, making it a practical choice for both defensive applications and range time. The jacketed hollow point design, combined with the substantial 1000 ft-lbs of muzzle energy, delivers consistent expansion while maintaining manageable recoil in full-sized revolvers and single-action platforms.
The aluminum casing significantly reduces overall weight compared to brass alternatives - a welcome feature when you're packing a full pack of rounds for an afternoon at the range. When accuracy counts, this load's 1000 fps velocity sweet spot helps maintain point-of-aim consistency while delivering enough punch for medium game hunting within reasonable distances.
For property defense in rural settings, this cartridge really shows its merit. The 200-grain projectile provides adequate penetration through heavy clothing or thick hide, while the JHP design helps mitigate over-penetration concerns. If you're running a lever gun in .45 Colt alongside your revolver, these rounds maintain consistent performance across both platforms, making them a practical choice for your defensive battery.
