Overview
The CCI Blazer CleanFire 45 ACP AUTO Ammo 230 Grain Full Metal Jacket is purpose-built for range training and recreational shooting, excelling in both indoor and outdoor environments. Its innovative CleanFire technology reduces exposure to airborne lead, barium, and antimony, making it particularly suited for indoor ranges where ventilation is a concern.
This cartridge balances affordability with performance, allowing shooters to practice extensively while minimizing environmental impact and personal health risks. Whether you’re honing your skills with a .45 ACP pistol or conducting high-volume practice sessions, this round ensures reliable performance with minimal residue buildup.
History and Development
CCI introduced the Blazer CleanFire line to address a growing need for safer, cleaner ammunition for indoor shooters. Traditional ammunition often releases airborne heavy metals during firing, presenting health and environmental concerns, particularly in enclosed spaces. The CleanFire design integrates advanced primers and clean-burning powders to virtually eliminate these contaminants without sacrificing reliability or ballistic performance.
The addition of lightweight aluminum casings further reflects CCI's focus on innovation, offering shooters a cost-effective alternative to brass while maintaining high standards of functionality. Over decades of refinement, CCI has solidified its reputation as a leader in producing practical, high-performing ammunition for a wide range of applications.

Yes, this ammo is fully compatible with all pistols chambered in .45 ACP, including classic 1911 models, providing reliable feeding, firing, and ejection.
