Description
Hodgdon CFE® Pistol is a spherical pistol propellant designed for competitive shooters and handloaders assembling target or self-defense loads. It offers optimum performance in popular handgun cartridges including 9mm Luger, .38 Super, .40 S&W, and .45 ACP, with application in many additional cartridges supported by Hodgdon data.
The defining feature is Hodgdon’s Copper Fouling Eraser ingredient, originally used in military propellant. It is formulated to greatly deter copper fouling, helping shooters maintain longer periods of top accuracy while spending less time on barrel cleaning.
For the handloader who wants a purpose-built pistol powder for range work, competition, or defensive-load applications, CFE Pistol brings a practical advantage to the bench: attention to fouling management alongside performance in widely used pistol cartridges. As always, use Hodgdon published load data for the exact cartridge and load combination.
Hodgdon CFE Pistol is made in the USA and is available in 1 lb. and 8 lb. containers.

CFE
Loading for a variety of pistol calibers and have not had a complaint with CFE. It meters evenly and consistently with an RCBS lil' Dandy powder measure. Burn rate and performance are spot on in .380 up through 10mm. Great job!

CFE Pistol Powder
CFE pistol powder is an excellent product. In my experience loading 45 acp this powder provides good velocity, minimal fouling of the firearm, and the inside of the brass cases are very clean after firing making reloading much easier.
