Yes, the CX 4 in 45 acp will eat lead bullets all day long. I load 200gr cast lead at 1000 fps and have shot several hundred in my CX 4. No sign of leading and no failure to feed or fire. Hope this helps.

Are non lead bullets chaeper then lead bullets?
In general, no. Lead is a very inexpensive metal. Custom bullets such as the pure copper bullets used in some hunting ammunition are made by a different process, and may cost more. On the other hand, there is training ammunition made with a plastic bullet for very short range target shooting- they may be a bit cheaper than lead.A new type of ammunition known as NT (for non-toxic) is now being sold. The primers contain no lead (most primers contain lead azide) and the bullets are either non-lead, or fully enclosed lead. These tend to be a bit pricy, but were created to address some of the health concerns with firing lead based ammunition on an indoor range.
