    | CCI Ammunition is one of the most well-known producers of aluminum-cased cartridges, having popularized this style with their "Blazer" line of ammunition. However, if you are looking for aluminum-cased ammo in 9mm, .40 S&W or .45 ACP, Blazer is hard to beat.  The difference between brass vs. aluminum is a common question. One big reason that aluminum bullets are gaining fans among the shooting public is cost savings.

    | FWIW- boxer primed .45 ACP aluminum cases work fine for moderate reloads(in my case, maybe 850 fps with cast bevel base 200 gr. SWC) The necks will split if you don't flare the case slooowwwly !
 I usually get 4 reloads out of the ones I can find . Which is why I like 'em, I use 'em when it's not likely I'll find my cases anyway.
 I cry if I can't find all my brass casings, got some WCC61 that's been reloaded so many times I have no clue !

                TO REMEMBER |  
              | 
                    
                      | ...If a man lies under oath or procures the lie of another under oath, if he perjures himself or suborns perjury, he is guilty under the statute law. Under the higher law, under the great law of morality and righteousness, he is precisely as guilty if, instead of lying in a court, he lies in a newspaper or on the stump; and in all probability, the evil effects of his conduct are infinitely more widespread and more pernicious.  — Teddy Roosevelt - May 12, 1900 |  |  |
