Haven't tried that, but I used to shoot a LOT of CCI Blazer aluminum cased .45 ACP, and never had a single problem with it. I even saw some crazy b***ards reloading it, sometimes even 2 - 3 times. Never heard of them having an issue either.

I've seen some spent cases out at the range. All I have heard is to not reload it.

Says its made by Blazer CCI.
GLOCK uses Blazer CCI Aluminium cased ammo for their test rounds.
To me that's a stamp of approval.

Now the interesting thing to me about these rounds to me is that they are Nylon Jacketed. Never used those but I have used the copper jacketed aluminium cased Blazer for years

[eagle eye]

Nylon Jacketed will mean not copper fouling.

[elsolo]

Copper fouling doesn't happen with handguns anyhow.

I shot several cases of 9mm Blaser before I started reloading, back when you could mail order it for $3.99 a box.

blazer stuff works for me they make a good 357 load

First 500 rds I put through my M&P45 were Blazer aluminum-cased ammo. Great stuff, not the cleanest, but economical and reasonably accurate for range use.

[voiceofreason]

Only shot CCI Blazer with no issues in 9, .40, .45.

I'd skip on the Blazer .22LR

that blazer 22lr is better than the remington golden bullet

I had a severe stoppage with CCI in a handgun class once. ONCE (out of 8k rounds of the stuff throughout my M&Ps life). The case was torn off it's rim by the M&Ps extractor and I had to jam the case out the chamber with a dowel. It's GTG for practice though.

I keep a stock of 9 & 45 Blazer Aluminum for those times where I can't retrieve brass. Usually for a class. Went thru 200+ rounds of 9mm at a class last Saturday. No issues.

That still doesn't say much
