We use it for our yearly qualification. I haven't noticed anything performance wise with the ammo. Granted, I don't know how long the PD has had the ammunition. Could be pre-covid but I doubt it, as we're a small department.

 

I picked up a case a couple of months ago. When I used it for the first time, it was not as pretty as the maxxtech I brought along as well. But, every CCI brass fired reliably so I figure, who cares how it looks as long as it performs? I wouldn't hesitate to buy another case.

 

Blazer Brass is good ammo but it is plated ammo

 

I have used blazer brass with good results in both my 9mm and 10mm. Academy sports had the 9mm brass on sale yesterday for 14.99 a box.

 

I have two 1000rd cases on the floor in my closet . I have zero issues with it .

 

Blazer 9MM Brass I have never had a problem with in any gun including the Ruger Carbine. I had a box of aluminum Blazer that malfunctioned in a CZ P-01, believe it or not. Same thing when I tried it in a SA Hellcat. Could have been just a bad lot, but I haven't bought any since.

 

What’s wrong with plated? I love blazer 9mm brass for reloading, primers always go in just right.

 

I don't know how many thousand rounds of Blazer Brass in 9mm that me, my son and friends have shot through my various handguns, but it's been a bunch. For range ammo it's one of my favorites as it's affordable and has always given decent results. Repeat that it has been affordable, which is the reason I bought my first thousand rounds of it years ago.

All mine date from pre-pandemic times as I had loaded up on ammo Big Time before the 2016 election which I expected the ugly hag to win. She didn't, so I have enough 9mm of various brands to last a good while.

My neighbor goes shooting with me most range trips and has recently bought several hundred rounds of Blazer Brass locally and ordered another thousand through SGAmmo. His looks and shoots the same as my pre-pandemic rounds, so not sure what is off about your own.

For what it's worth, if I put a Blazer Brass round down beside a round of some of my other affordable range ammo brands like Sellier & Bellot and ask a shooter to pick one based on looks alone I'm certain most would pick the S&B round. It simply looks better. But in my own hands the performance on target is about the same or only marginally better than Blazer Brass. Not enough to matter for range ammo. I don't reload 9mm so can't opine on the brass for home loads. At this time Blazer Brass and S&B are exactly the same price per thousand at SGAmmo.

Hope the Blazer Brass shoots well for you since you've invested in a couple hundred of them.

 

IMO Blazer makes cheap dirty brass, but nothing my 43X and P320 can’t reliably chew through.

 

Finishing off another case if it soon.
No issues with 115 and 124 gr.

 

I'm a Magtech fan, buy bulk from Ammunition Depot but been out of stock for months. At their suggestion tried Blazer Brass 9mm 115 grain. After a case, shoots well, had no problems in 43X and 17. BUT, a little "dirtier" than the Magtech.

 

I am not anticipating any problems with the ammo, it's just something I noticed. As a "responsible consumer" I like to know what I'm getting. Nothing "wrong" with plated bullets either, but if I can get jacketed for the same price or close, I'll take jacketed.

 

I prefer 124 grain. Blazer ammo is good

 

I shoot a fair amount of it in a couple calibers. It’s always worked well for me.

 

I can’t comment on the brass but the 115 gr aluminum case is outstanding. Probably the cleanest 9mm I’ve shot in the past few years and have relaibly run >4k through my guns without issue.

 

Seems to be as good as most range ammo in 9mm & others.

 

Over the years I've fired many cases of Blazer Brass in 9mm and other calibers. They are inexpensive but reliable practice ammo. I've never had any issue.

 

I’ve used up a couple cases of Blazer brass 115 over the last couple years in USPSA and SCSA matches, not a single problem.

 

Like I said, I'm not anticipating problems, just that the quality has taken a noticable, if insignificant hit.

Glad it still performs well for you all.

 

I bought a case of 124 Blazer Brass as it shoots pretty nice groups in my G34. Then a week or so later I won a 1/2 case of 115 In a raffle. The 115 shoots well in my G47 so I’m good for a little while anyway and I can take a break from the loading bench.

 

I tried some of this 9mm ammo today and it jammed and one time after another. Brand new custom made 9mm carbine jammed after 1 or 2 rounds fired. Local gun smith who built this carbine told me this ammo is junk. Hope I can return the 4 full boxes I have left. SAD!

 

I would not deem an ammo junk because it won’t fire in an unproven custom firearm. Don’t worry it will fire in most guns.

 

Great ammo have shot thousands of rounds.
