Video Transcript:
Blazer ammo from CCI is available in both brass case and aluminum case varieties, and is intended for casual target practice and general range use.
Blazer Aluminum is one of the only brands of ammo available with a lightweight aircraft grade aluminum case, and has been in production since 1980.
We used Blazer Aluminum 165 grain in 40 Smith & Wesson for this review. It has a copper jacketed bullet with a lead core and a non-corrosive primer.
The aluminum casings make the ammo a little lighter than brass or steel, but the function is just the same as most other ammo.
I've actually had better luck with Blazer Aluminum than some guns that don't feed steel cases very well most of the time, and none of the test guns we used this for review had any problems with reliability or feeding. Our 15-yard bench rest group showed Blazer to be reasonably accurate, as well.
If you don't reload, but want to practice with dependable, American-made ammo, then Blazer Aluminum is a good choice.

I put 500 rounds thru my Glock 22 and had no bad rounds. I have a friend that put 50 more expense and better round thru his and had 5 five bad rounds. This is a great value for such good quality. (Posted on 12/26/12)Performance Value Quality - kicks butt Review by rooster_h

Just went through 500 rounds in my new Glock 23 with zero problems. The only issue is the rounds came with some black residue on the casings. It was crusty but easy to clean as it just flaked off. Took about 15 minutes to wipe everything down. I didn't notice any problems from it. Highly recommended.

These work great and they are cheaper than any physical store you can find them at. At typically $79.00-89.00 per 250 at a store these are an extremely great deal plus there is no tax and I used a $15.00 off a $150.00 purchase coupon to get these.Performance Value Quality
I have fired these for years with never a jam, misfire or problem. I am probably gong to order another case since the zombies are coming soon. Be smart and buy these. (Posted on 5/1/12) - Have shot these for years with absolutely no problems. Great for the range. Review by Bobby

You know exactly what they have, and it's almost always a better price than anywhere else you might find. There are never backorders, so you're not dissapointed when you open your package to find half of your order not filled. You can count on your ammo being delivered to your front door in just a few days after you place your order. I have told my family, friends and people at my shooting club that Luckygunner.com is the best place for all of your ammo needs."

I have used them on at least four occasions and always the same great service. If only there were more online dealers who took as great care with their customers would make things so much simpler thanks gunner"
HardWired56 said: "Every order I place gets here in 3 days-the shipping is fast and cheap and the online availability of inventory is the best. I have bought the Lake City reman .45acp and .380-super happy with both rounds. Ok, then I buy several different types of .223/5.56 just to see how they shoot-all were as expected and good stuff. Finally I had to buy more .22longs. Got Federal, Federal Champions and Winchester. I bought 3 bricks of ammo for what I would pay for 2 around here (not counting wasted gas and time). I will order again - Great work folks!"
