BLAZER 9MM 115GR FMJ 50/1000

Description

Blazer aluminum is CCI’s range-use load — designed for shooters who put a high volume of rounds downrange and want reliable function without paying a premium for brass cases they won’t be reloading. The aluminum case keeps cost per round lower than equivalent brass-cased ammunition while still holding SAAMI-standard pressures and dimensions, so it feeds and extracts in any 9mm chamber built to spec. The trade-off is straightforward: aluminum work-hardens and cannot be resized, so these cases go in the bin after firing rather than back into a press. For the shooter who doesn’t reload, that distinction is irrelevant to the buying decision.

The 115-grain full metal jacket bullet provides reliable feeding across a wide range of semi-automatic pistols, particularly those with ramp geometries that can be finicky with hollow points. The FMJ profile also means the projectile passes through the target without expanding, which is what you want for paper and steel at the range but not for defensive carry. Muzzle velocity runs at 1145 fps, producing 335 foot-pounds of energy at the muzzle — standard-pressure figures that keep felt recoil predictable and manageable through extended range sessions. CCI uses non-corrosive primers, so there’s no additional urgency around cleaning after a range day, though cleaning promptly remains good practice regardless. The load is built to SAAMI standards, which means it functions consistently across any 9mm pistol chambered to the same spec. Available in a box of 50 or a case of 1000 rounds.
