OR is it same bullet different packaging?

Seems like the CCI Blazer is in steel casing and Blazer Brass is in brass casings.

Why is "dirty ammo" an issue when you clean your guns after every range trip? I clean mine after 4-5 range trips. I still don't see why dirty ammo is an issue.

There's CCI Blazer Brass and CCI Blazer Aluminum. You'll see both below.

So much ammo...*drools*

Propellerhead - it looks like you spend ALL of your time at Wallyworld buying up CCI ammo. Do you have any time left over to get to the range??

Keep up the good work!!

My sig should indicate how often I go to the range. As far as ammo, I buy a few boxes every now and then. Plus, if I shoot four boxes at the range, I'll buy five.

And I thought I had a stash of BB .45auto...

None of the WM I go to have ever had BB 9mm, I wish they did. I like the price and the way it shoots. I've never had a problem with it.

DUDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I envy your stash

And I wonder ---------------- I even asked my wife will mine ever be as big as his?

Just kidding!!

i believe that you're thinking of wolf ammo,they put some kind of cheap lacquer on it to waterproof it and theres other questionable things about some chemicals in it.a friend of mine had to buy a new barrel for his beretta after a bullet from wolf stuck half way through the barrel.i can shoot blazer aluminum all day long through my sig and xd 40 with no problem.

I've put about 3,000 rounds of Blazer Brass through my 4" Service XD. No problems.

Man! I thought I had a decent stash of .45 ammo until I seen that!
I have only shot Winchester WB and Blazer Brass through my XD. The CCI is more accurate, and a bit cleaner than the Winny. Accuracy at 15 yds is outstanding. I haven't done any true accuracy tests at 25 yds yet.
