Blazer and PMC Ammo Question - XDTalk Forums - Your HS2000/SA-XD Information Source!

gjgarre · 12-30-2007, 03:58 PM

I just traded my dad a couple of boxes of .40 ammo that i had back when i had a glock for some old .45 ammo that i need for my new xd. Anybody have any problems with using Blazer or PMC .45 ammo in their XD. I only need it them for target practice ( I have some Taurus .45 Hex ammo shipping as we speak for defense). I know that Blazer is some of the cheaper ammo, but I have never heard of PMC ammo.

I have used a lot of Blazer both in .40sw&.45acp and never had a problem.

I prefer Blazer Brass over WWB in store bought ammo and I believe PMC is made in Korea and sells a lot of ammo in the US. I have used it and don't remember anything bad about it.

I prefer the Blazer brass over the WWB now. You should have no concerns shooting the Blazer.

No issues with BB in .45 (230gr?)

Fioocchi has a Mfg. plant in Mo. if you can find any of their Ammo. is very good shooting and quality made Ammo. I have used their .223 .40sw&.45acp all work great.

Thanks for the thumbs up on the ammo, I will probably have them shot up in a few days anyway.

I've only put 1 box of WWB (100 rounds) through my XD...everything else has been Blazer Brass and Speer GoldDots...not a single malfunction.

Blazer Brass has worked well for me too. I have never had an issue.
