2026 is shaping up to be the year of suppressors, all thanks to $0 Tax Stamps that were passed as part of the Big Beautiful Bill. But the boom goes beyond just suppressors and other NFA items. It includes a wide range of accessories and extra gear, including ammunition.
While there have been subsonic options for popular cartridges for some time, none of them have been optimized to run clean (or less dirty) through a suppressor. Keeping suppressors clean helps with noise reduction and extends their lifespan. That’s why CCI has introduced its new line of Blazer Brass Clean-Fire Suppressor ammo.
SPECS
CCI Ammunition has introduced Blazer Brass Clean-Fire Suppressor, a purpose-built load engineered specifically for suppressed handguns and carbines. The specs for the new loadings are as follows.

Features
Designed for subsonic velocities, it keeps rounds comfortably below the sound barrier while pairing Total Metal Jacket bullets with lead-free primers to significantly reduce heavy-metal fouling. The result is ammunition that stays clean through both the barrel and the suppressor, reducing the gritty buildup that usually shortens range days and increases cleaning time.
These Clean-Fire loads are engineered for reliable, consistent cycling and meet power-factor requirements for competitive shooting, offering shooters match-ready performance without extra maintenance issues. Now shipping and arriving at retailers nationwide, the Blazer Brass Clean-Fire Suppressor is built for those who demand quieter performance without sacrificing reliability or ease of upkeep.
Zooming Out
The CCI Clean-Fire Suppressor line offers suppressor users and competitors an option to optimize shooting suppressed—something that’s becoming more common. While you can still use traditional loads, these from CCI will improve your experience and make maintenance easier.
