The CCI 45 Colt Bismuth Shotshell is a lead-free defensive and pest-control round built on CCI's centerfire handgun shotshell platform. Loaded with HEVI-Bismuth pellets cast and alloyed in Sweet Home, Oregon, these rounds deliver the density and downrange energy you'd expect from traditional lead shot while meeting all non-toxic ammunition regulations. Whether you're dealing with varmints on your property or need a reliable short-range defensive option in a revolver, this is a practical, regulated choice for shooters who can't use lead.
HEVI-Bismuth pellets clock in at 9.6 g/cc density—nearly matching lead's ballistic performance without the legal restrictions that come with it. CCI pairs the shot with their Catalyst lead-free primer, delivering consistent ignition round after round. At 1050 fps muzzle velocity, these shotshells generate effective short-range patterns ideal for close-quarters pest control or defensive use in a 45 Colt revolver.
Available in shot size 8, the CCI 45 Colt Bismuth Shotshell is packaged in boxes of 10 rounds. Each round carries 130 grains of bismuth shot, giving you a balanced load that won't overwork your handgun while maintaining the stopping power needed for varmint work. If you shoot in states or hunting areas where lead ammunition is prohibited, or if you simply prefer a non-toxic round, CCI's bismuth option keeps you compliant and effective.
| Caliber | 45 Colt |
| Shot Size | 8 |
| Shot Type | Bismuth (HEVI-Bismuth) |
| Shot Weight | 130 grains |
| Muzzle Velocity | 1050 fps |
| Primer | Catalyst (lead-free) |
| Round Count per Box | 10 |
| Intended Use | Varmint, defensive |
Yes. These rounds are completely lead-free and use bismuth shot, which complies with non-toxic ammunition requirements in most states and hunting areas that restrict lead.
HEVI-Bismuth pellets are alloyed and cast to a density of 9.6 g/cc, which is nearly equal to lead. This delivers similar downrange energy and ballistic performance, making them an effective lead-free substitute for short-range defensive and pest-control work.
These are centerfire handgun shotshells designed for 45 Colt revolvers. They're built to function in revolvers chambered for that caliber; always verify your firearm is compatible with shotshell ammunition before use.
These rounds are engineered for short-range patterns, making them suitable for close-quarters pest control and defensive applications—not long-distance shooting.
