  • Blazer Ammo

    I'm needing to get some range ammo and there's a heckuva lot of this Blazer Brass 9mm ammo on Gunbroker right now. Anybody used this and what did you think of it.

    thanks for input.

    I've not used the 9 but we use the 45 here at the department for training and it's never given us any issues.

    I reload the brass and it works real well. Small primer even in 45 but it works good.

      The 9 mm Blazer brass works ok.
      On the internet, the number of posts do not correlate to actual knowledge.
      The notch is supposed to be there as well as the bulge at the front of the frame!

        anytime I could buy it cheaper than i can buy wwb at wal mart, I often bought it. It is good range fodder. Do I prefer the brass over the aluminum, yes I do and why???I just don't know either. I don't reload anymore and the aluminum worked fine and normally is alittle less bucks to..

          I've had very good luck with the aluminum case stuff. We've used it for training too in the past. I found the brass cased for just a bit more money and wanted it to reload so ordered brass.

          Kind of nice really with the aluminum you don't feel the need to find every case and don't get a guilt complex leaving any good brass behind.

          Course I'm a brass hoarder so I have a complex anyhow.

            I've shot quite a lot of Blazer .38s. Inexpensive, go bang, but IMO very dirty.

              I've had good luck with Blazer Brass, too.

              Before the SHTF, 9mm was readily available for $220/1000 or less. What's the price now?

                probably $1000/220 rounds.

                  Blazer is okay as long as it's brass. Maybe just a bit underpowered, but that's all right for most pistols. I never shoot aluminum or steel though.

                    I got a case of the Blazer Brass not too long ago and went through a couple hundred rounds without any problems. Thanks to gun.bot I was able to find another 500 rounds at Palmetto State Armory at 14.99 for a box of 50. Was delivered today. Way cheaper than what I've been seeing at Gunbroker. You have to be on your toes though because when something comes up it goes real fast.

                      I just went to the range with my G23C. I was shooting a mixed magazine of the odds left over and started with PPU 180-gr FMJ... kind of mild... caught me by surprise when the recoil and boom increased dramatically... was the Blazer Al-Cased 165-gr FMJ... kind of ferocious... then the Federal Champion 180-gr Value-Pack-100 FMJ... seems stout, too!

                        Brass and Aluminum cased has all worked fine for me.
                        The only thing better than having all the guns and ammo you'd ever need would be being able to shoot it all off the back porch.

                          It's ran fine for me in 380, 9 and 45.

                              Brass ammo works okay. Unlike "B" I cannot hate upon aluminium ammo enough. I have seen it fail more often than not when I saw it used on the PD range. My department has banned the useage of aluminium ammo.
