Cesaroni Technology Incorporated (CTI) has been supplying lead-free frangible projectiles to all major ammunition manufacturers worldwide for over 30 years. Since the market introduction of CTI’s projectiles in the mid 90’s, our customers have provided over 2 billion rounds of lead-free frangible ammunition to defense and law enforcement users around the globe for both CQB training and tactical operations. Recreational users are also recognizing the advantages of using lead-free frangible ammunition in home defense and indoor/outdoor target shooting.
About Our Product
CTI is continually expanding its line-up of GREENRANGE lead-free frangible projectiles and includes numerous 300AAC Blackout, 9 mm and 5.56×45 variants as well as a number of shot gun projectiles. The product line ranges from .22LR to .50BMG and includes all popular pistol and rifle calibres in both copper-jacketed and unjacketed styles including 4.6×30, 5.56×45, .38SPL, 380AUTO, 9mm, .40S&W, .45ACP, 7.62×39, 7.62×51 & 300AAC Blackout. Shot gun projectiles include both true spherical buckshot and slug designs for 12 gauge applications.
When combined with lead-free primers, GREENRANGE Projectiles offer a true 100% lead-free, environmentally friendly alternative to reduced lead and encapsulated lead ammunition products.
Our semi-jacketed frangible projectiles are suppressor safe and significantly reduce fouling in suppressors unlike other polymeric frangible bullets.
