Description
CCI Blazer Brass 40 Cal 180gr FMJ ammunition combines CCI’s reliable priming with reloadable brass cases and clean-burning propellants. Each cartridge carries a 180 grain full metal jacket flat nose at a rated 985 feet per second. The 180 grain bullet is the original full-weight .40 S&W load, so practice with this box feels much like shooting a typical duty or carry round.
Why Shooters Choose This 40 Cal Range Ammo
- 180 grain full metal jacket flat nose bullet
- Rated 985 fps
- Boxer-primed, reloadable brass cases
- Clean-burning propellants for less fouling
- Packed 50 rounds per box, CCI 5220
CCI Blazer Brass 40 Cal 180gr FMJ Features
- 180 grain flat nose FMJ at a rated 985 fps
- Protected-base bullet limits exposed lead
- Reliable CCI primers and clean-burning powder
- Boxer-primed, reloadable brass cases
- Feeds smoothly in full-size and compact .40 S&W pistols
The protected-base design covers the bottom of the lead core with jacket material, which reduces lead exposure from the powder burn and helps keep indoor range air cleaner. Combined with clean-burning propellant, that means less fouling in your pistol after a long session. Expect a firm, snappy recoil compared with 9mm, and use a solid two-handed grip to keep follow-up shots on target.
Because the brass is boxer primed, handloaders can collect their empties and reload them. Keep practice ammunition in its original box, separate from carry ammunition, and store it in a cool, dry place for consistent results from one range trip to the next. Always confirm your pistol is chambered for .40 S&W before loading.

Why Choose 40 Cal FMJ Ammo for Training
The .40 S&W remains a popular choice for duty, home defense and competition, and steady practice is the best way to master its sharper recoil. This 40 cal fmj ammo gives you a consistent, affordable load for drills, qualification practice and casual range days.
The flat nose profile feeds well in modern .40 caliber pistols and punches clean holes in paper targets for easy scoring. Because the bullet weight matches many popular defensive loads, your point of impact stays close when you switch to carry ammunition.
Full metal jacket bullets are built for practice and target work rather than expansion, so pair this load with a quality hollow point for personal protection.
CCI has built ammunition and primers in Lewiston, Idaho since the 1950s, and Blazer Brass is one of the most popular range loads in the country. The reloadable brass cases are a bonus for handloaders, who can collect and reuse their brass after each range trip.
Law enforcement officers, competitive shooters and anyone who owns a .40 S&W pistol will get dependable service from this box of 40 cal range ammo. Always confirm your firearm is chambered for .40 S&W, wear eye and ear protection, and follow all federal, state and local laws.
Shooters choose blazer brass ammo because it balances cost and quality. You get the same reliable CCI primers and consistent powder charges found in more expensive loads, with brass cases you can reload, at a price that makes regular practice realistic. For many shooters it is the default box they reach for whenever they head to the range.
Store this ammunition in a cool, dry place in its original packaging so the lot number stays with it. If you shoot often, buying several boxes of the same lot keeps your point of impact consistent from session to session.
