Video Transcript:
Blazer ammo comes from CCI, part of the ATK family of brands. It also includes ammo like Speer Lawman and Federal American Eagle. Blazer is part of CCI's line of lower cost range and training ammo, and is available in both brass and aluminum case varieties.
For this test, we use Blazer Brass in 45 ACP with a 230 grain full metal jacket bullet. Reliability was great and the ammo gave us no problems in any of our six test pistols. We tested accuracy from a bench rest at 15 yards using a Springfield XDM, and got just about every round through the one ragged hole just left of center.
Blazer Brass is a great, low cost option for shooters who like to reload. Most brands of brass cased ammo worked just fine in my reloading press, but I seem to have gotten some of the most consistent results from Blazer Brass. Because of the low cost and consistent performance, Blazer Brass makes a great choice for everyday practice ammo.

Get ready to clean your gun. This is some of the dirtiest shooting ammo I have ever used. No FTF's or FTE's, but wow! The black just keeps on coming. I love LG but this is not good stuff. (Posted on 7/12/11)Quality Performance Value
