CCI Shotshell 45 ACP ammunition delivers a specialized 120-grain load of #9 lead shot in a standard .45 ACP case, designed for close-range pest control and training scenarios. This 200-round case provides a practical solution for shooters needing a reliable, low-penetration option. We’ve stocked this SKU since late 2024, and it consistently brings repeat customers back for more. The product performs as intended, though we note the factory packaging is on the flimsy side—the ammo itself is solid.

Your Questions Answered
Will this cycle reliably in my semi-auto pistol?
In most standard .45 ACP pistols, yes. The load is designed to cycle the action, but always test a few rounds in your specific firearm to confirm function before relying on it.
What is the effective range?
This is a close-range load. Effective pattern for small pests is typically within 10-15 feet. Beyond that, pattern spread and energy drop off significantly.
Is this for self-defense?
No. This is a pest control and training load. It lacks the penetration and terminal ballistics required for defensive use against human threats.
