Cci 40s&w Bismuth Shotshell 10/200

CCI 40s&w Bismuth Shotshell 10/200 rounds represent a specialized handgun ammunition solution designed for tactical professionals, law enforcement, and defensive shooters who require non-toxic shot performance without compromising terminal energy. These centerfire shotshells address the growing regulatory demand for lead-free ammunition while maintaining the ballistic characteristics operators expect in close-quarters engagement scenarios. Purpose-built for .40 S&W platforms, this ammunition bridges the gap between traditional lead shot and modern environmental compliance requirements.

Each round is loaded with HEVI-Bismuth pellets engineered to 9.6 g/cc density, delivering nearly identical downrange energy and impact characteristics to conventional lead shot. The Catalyst lead-free primer system ensures reliable ignition and consistent performance across varied temperature conditions—critical for duty and defensive applications. Bismuth's superior hardness compared to steel alternatives minimizes barrel wear, allowing extended service life without the velocity penalties associated with steel shot. The result is a non-toxic load that maintains shot density, pattern consistency, and velocity necessary for effective defensive use.

Tactical operators, range facilities subject to environmental regulations, and law enforcement agencies operating under lead-ammunition restrictions benefit most from this ammunition specification. It performs reliably in standard .40 S&W semi-automatic platforms and O/U shotgun conversions configured for handgun calibers. Compatibility extends across duty-grade firearms without requiring specialized feeding modifications or cycling adjustments. For professionals requiring compliance-certified, non-toxic defense ammunition without operational compromise, CCI 40s&w Bismuth Shotshell delivers proven performance.
