Cci 45lc #9 Shotshell 10/200

The CCI 45LC #9 Shotshell 10/200 delivers specialized pest control performance in a compact, high-volume package. This rimfire shotshell round combines CCI's proven manufacturing standards with a #9 shot load optimized for close-range accuracy on small game and varmints. The 45 Long Colt platform offers shooters a dedicated pistol-caliber shotshell option that stands apart from traditional centerfire loads—a niche where CCI maintains industry leadership through dedicated R&D and quality control.

#9 shot provides a dense pattern tight enough for reliable hits on rats, snakes, and other problem pests at typical engagement distances of 10–25 feet, where traditional ammunition creates excessive damage or over-penetration. The 10-round per box format allows shooters to manage cost while maintaining sufficient practice and duty supply. CCI's rimfire and centerfire shotshell lines are engineered for consistent chamber pressures and pattern performance—critical factors in pest control where pattern expansion and pellet energy must remain predictable across various firearm platforms.

This round is designed for shooters and operators managing property security, wildlife control, or training scenarios where conventional ammunition presents liability or collateral damage concerns. Law enforcement K-9 units, agricultural professionals, and rural property managers represent the core user base for shotshell ammunition. The 45LC #9 Shotshell operates within standard pressure guidelines for this caliber, making it suitable for revolvers and lever-action firearms chambered in 45 Long Colt without special modifications.

CCI's specialty ammunition lines occupy a distinct market position—bridging the gap between full-power centerfire loads and .22 rimfire options. Shotshell ammunition in pistol calibers remains relatively uncommon, making CCI's inventory depth and consistency a logistical advantage for facilities or organizations with recurring demand.
