45 ACP – 230 gr FMJ – Blazer Aluminum (3570) – 1000 Rounds

Pick up this 1000 round case of Blazer Aluminum 3570 45 ACP 230 grain FMJ ammo, made by CCI. Blazer Aluminum is built to keep the cost per round down for high volume practice, and this full case is enough for many range sessions, classes, and matches with your 45.

The 3570 load fires a 230 grain full metal jacket bullet at a rated 845 fps with 365 ft-lbs of muzzle energy. That is the classic 45 ACP bullet weight and velocity, so it closely matches the feel and point of impact of many standard defensive loads. Practicing with the same bullet weight you carry helps you build consistent recoil management and sight tracking. The FMJ bullet is made for target practice and training. It is not a defensive or hunting load, because a full metal jacket bullet does not expand.

The 45 ACP was designed by John Browning and adopted by the U.S. military with the M1911 pistol in 1911. It remains a favorite in 1911 pattern pistols, polymer frame duty pistols, revolvers designed for the cartridge, and pistol caliber carbines. The heavy, slower 45 ACP bullet produces a recoil impulse many shooters describe as a push rather than a snap, and the cartridge has a long record in competition and military service. Confirm your firearm is chambered for 45 ACP before use. CCI makes the Blazer line, and Blazer Aluminum uses a heat-treated, aircraft-grade aluminum case to save cost compared to brass.

This case contains 20 boxes of 50 rounds each for a total of 1000 rounds of Blazer Aluminum 3570. The ammunition is new production with an aluminum case, which is non-reloadable, so you can shoot and leave the empties if you prefer. A 1000 round case is a practical amount for a training class or several months of regular range visits. Store the case in a cool, dry place and it will be ready for your next practice session.
