CCI 45 ACP Shotshell #9 Shot Pest Control Ammo

CCI 45 ACP Shotshell Ammunition

When conventional ammunition isn't the answer, CCI's shotshell loads provide a specialized solution for pest control at close range. These centerfire handgun shotshells are engineered to function reliably in semi-automatic pistols while delivering consistent shot patterns.

Key Features

• Shot Size: #9 shot
• Weight: 120 grains
• Muzzle Velocity: 1,100 feet per second
• Packaging: 10 rounds per box (reusable)
• Rigid plastic shot capsules that break cleanly on the rifling
• Flexible base wad prevents gas blow-by and ensures reliable function
• Reliable CCI primers for consistent ignition
• Easy cleanup: Residue removes with normal cleaning methods

Design and Function

CCI engineered these shotshells specifically for semi-automatic pistols. The rigid plastic capsule design breaks predictably as it travels down the barrel, creating a consistent shot pattern ideal for small, hard-to-hit targets at short distances. The flexible base wad prevents gas escape around the shot column, maintaining pattern integrity.

Important Safety Information

DO NOT USE IN REVOLVERS — cylinder lock-up may occur. These cartridges are designed exclusively for semi-automatic pistols. Do not use in firearms with ported barrels or ported recoil compensators. Cases are marked NR (Not Reloadable) — do not attempt to reload these cartridges, as case rupture can cause severe injury.

Ideal Applications

These loads excel at eliminating snakes and other small pests in tight quarters where conventional ammunition may be overkill or impractical. The close-range, consistent patterns make them an effective choice for property protection and pest management.
