CCI Blazer Brass 40 S&W ammunition delivers dependable performance for range training, defensive practice, and competition shooting. Loaded to SAAMI standards with a 180-grain full metal jacket (FMJ) bullet at 985 fps, this 50-round box offers the kind of consistent, no-nonsense reliability that keeps you focused on your shot. Whether you're logging rounds at the range or building muscle memory with your duty or carry gun, Blazer Brass gives you the confidence that your ammo will fire when you press the trigger.
What sets Blazer Brass apart in a crowded market is the reloadable brass casing. Unlike many budget options, these rounds use standard Boxer-type primers and conventional primer pockets, so you can save your empties and reload them just like any other quality brass. Over time, that adds real value—especially if you shoot regularly. CCI's in-house primers and clean-burning propellants mean fewer fouling headaches downrange and more time actually shooting instead of scrubbing your gun.
The protected-base FMJ design and rigid quality control—backed by ISO certified manufacturing—ensure consistent performance box after box. This isn't fancy ammunition; it's built to work. If you need straightforward, reloadable 40 S&W ammo that won't let you down and leaves room in the budget for more range days, Blazer Brass is a solid choice.
