What Customers Say

Customers rate this CCI Blazer Brass load 4.78 out of 5 across over 539 verified reviews and growing.

Reasonable price and accurate as the shooter is. Used on my Beretta PX4 Storm 40 and NO Failure to Feed or Failure to Fire. I'm religous about gun care so my guns are cleaned, oiled and ready after we return from shooting. This may be why I have no issues.

I love this CCI Blazer Brass ammo. I prefer Blazer with both my Compact M&P .40 Shield 2.0 and my Hi Point TS .40 Carbine. I have had no miss fires or defective rounds shooting almost 3000 rounds of it. It is affordable and reliable from my experience.

Christopher M.

One round in a box of 50 was a bad round. It had a bad primer. It had the punch mark from the firing pin but it just did not fire. I tried it two separate 40 caliber firearms and nothing. Other than that it, this ammo is good for the range.
