9mm - 115 Grain FMJ - Blazer Brass Training - 50 Rounds
You can tell from this 9mm ammo’s decidedly utilitarian packaging that it was either (A) made in such vast quantities that Blazer didn’t have enough colorful boxes to hold it all, or (B) made specifically for law enforcement officers who don’t give a fig about pretty graphics while they’re training. Either way this is Blazer’s usual solid, consistent Brass label ammo, preferred by countless shooters for the important task of ensuring that America is not overrun by paper targets. This round ends in a 115 grain full metal jacket projectile: simple, accurate, and non-expanding. The bullet’s jacket fortifies it against catching in a feeding mechanism or deforming under the stress of ignition, and also lets it leave less lead residue behind in a firearm’s barrel. Blazer’s FMJ is extra nice because its base is protected by its jacket. This prohibits hot propellant gasses from cooking and evaporating the bullet’s lead core, promoting a healthier training environment – particularly indoors, where the ventilation ain’t so good. No surprises here: Brass label ammo features new production brass cases, which shooters like for their tendency to keep an action cleaner than aluminum could have, as well as their suppleness which permits handloading. Blazer uses CCI’s Boxer primers, which are sensitive and non-corrosive, and loads consistent charges of propellant to promote steady muzzle velocities. This round’s 1,145 fps muzzle velocity was recorded out of a 4†barrel, same length as a Glock 19 or Walther PPQ M2.
45 ACP - 155 Grain RHT Frangible - Speer Lawman - 50 Rounds
Even the most cautious shooter is subject to certain dangers when they train. Shooting at steel targets and against hard backdrops presents a real risk of splash-back, where copper and lead fragments ricochet back to do serious damage. Splash-back is also a common problem at indoor ranges, where poor ventilation may also cause toxic lead to linger in a carcinogenic haze! But Speer’s Lawman line of ammunition works to make all those risks moot. This 45 ACP cartridge features Speer’s 155 grain Reduced Hazard Training projectile. The frangible bullet is comprised of 100 percent compressed copper particles, which are hardened but not fused together in a process called sintering. The RHT accordingly stays intact as it feeds and fires, but crushes itself into powder when it slaps a steel target or other hard surface. And in conjunction with this round’s heavy metal free Clean-Fire primer, the RHT poses no threat of producing airborne lead that could have accumulated indoors. This round’s lightweight bullet grants it a fast muzzle velocity, although you will find Speer’s training ammo reliably mimics many other conventional self-defense loads. Speer gives their RHT a distinctive pattern on its tip for easy identification, and complements it with a new brass case and clean burning propellant for superior functionality in a semi-auto.
