CCI BLAZER BRASS 380ACP 98GR JHP 50

Description

Blazer Brass in .380 ACP with a 98-grain hollow point occupies a practical middle ground: it gives compact-pistol shooters a single load they can use for both regular range work and everyday carry without maintaining two separate stockpiles. That consistency matters because your point of impact, recoil feel, and manual-of-arms stay the same regardless of whether you’re drilling fundamentals or loading up for carry.

The hollow-point projectile is designed to initiate expansion on impact, making it a meaningful step up from ball ammunition for defensive purposes while remaining approachable in the lighter-recoiling .380 platform. At 98 grains it sits toward the heavier end of common .380 offerings, which generally translates to a slightly flatter trajectory at typical defensive distances compared to lighter loads, though the .380 envelope keeps velocity and energy modest by design.

Brass cases are the detail that separates Blazer Brass from CCI’s aluminum-cased Blazer line. If you reload, the cases are worth recovering. If you don’t, the brass still feeds and extracts more predictably than aluminum in pistols that are sensitive to case material, and it ejects cleanly enough that brass-only ranges won’t turn you away. CCI uses clean-burning propellants and quality primers throughout the line, which keeps fouling manageable over an extended range session. Each box contains 50 rounds, making it straightforward to run a meaningful practice session or rotate defensive stock without buying in bulk.
