Description
The Blazer 44 Special 200gr JHP is an affordable way to shoot more with a 44 Special or 44 Magnum revolver. CCI loads a 200 grain jacketed hollow point at a rated 920 fps with 376 ft-lbs, using heat-treated, aircraft-grade aluminum cases to keep the price down. Each box holds 50 rounds.
Why Choose the Blazer 44 Special 200gr JHP
The 44 Special is a classic, mild-shooting cartridge, and it can be fired in any revolver or lever-action rifle chambered for 44 Magnum. That makes 44 Special practice ammo a great way to build skill with a big-bore revolver without the heavy recoil of full-power magnum loads.
CCI Blazer aluminum case revolver ammo keeps cost per round low, so shooters can spend more time on trigger control, double-action practice and reloading drills.
The 200 grain hollow point bullet also gives the load some usefulness beyond paper, though for serious defense or hunting most shooters choose a premium bonded or hard cast load.
What to Know About the Blazer 44 Special 200gr JHP
These cases are aluminum and not reloadable. Handloaders who want to keep their brass should choose a brass-cased load instead, and some ranges have rules about aluminum cases, so check before you go.
For 44 Mag revolver training, remember that firing many 44 Special rounds in a 44 Magnum cylinder can leave a ring of fouling in the chambers. Clean the cylinder thoroughly before switching back to full-length magnum cartridges so they chamber easily.
Point of impact often differs between 44 Special and 44 Magnum loads in fixed-sight revolvers, so confirm where each load prints before relying on it.

Who Should Buy This Load
Owners of 44 Special revolvers and 44 Magnum shooters looking for a softer, cheaper practice round will get a lot of value from this Blazer load. It is also a comfortable choice for introducing new shooters to a big-bore revolver.
The trade-offs are non-reloadable cases and a hollow point that is designed more for practice than for premium terminal performance.
