Description
Blazer Brass has earned a permanent spot in a lot of range bags, and it's not hard to see why. CCI loads these 9mm rounds at their Lewiston, Idaho facility using the same quality systems and components behind other premium Vista Outdoor brands. The result is a 124-grain FMJ that cycles smoothly, shoots consistently, and leaves your gun cleaner than a lot of competing range ammo at the same price point.
The 124-grain bullet weight is a sweet spot for 9mm. It hits a comfortable balance between felt recoil and downrange performance, and it closely mirrors the weight of many popular defensive loads, making it a solid choice for training with the same feel as your carry ammo. Muzzle velocity is rated at 1,090 fps out of a 4-inch barrel, generating 327 ft-lbs of energy at the muzzle.
Every round is loaded into a reloadable brass case with standard Boxer-type primers and primer pockets, so once you're done shooting, the brass is ready to be reloaded just like any other quality brass case. CCI's own primers handle ignition duty, and the clean-burning propellants keep fouling manageable even during long range sessions.
This 1000-round case ships as 20 boxes of 50 rounds each. Whether you're working through drills, taking a class, or just burning through a good stack of rounds on the weekend, buying by the case is the way to go.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the brass in CCI Blazer Brass 9mm reloadable?
Yes, the cases are standard Boxer-primed brass with conventional primer pockets, which means they reload exactly like any other quality brass case. The virgin brass holds up well and can be reloaded multiple times with standard reloading equipment. If you're a reloader, this is one of the better values in bulk range ammo.
How does 124gr compare to 115gr for range use?
The 124gr load sits a step heavier than the common 115gr option and is actually closer in weight to what many defensive loads use, making it a great choice for training to match your carry ammo's feel. Recoil is slightly more noticeable than 115gr, but most people find it comfortable and easy to manage. Both bullet weights are excellent for range work.
Can I use CCI Blazer Brass 9mm 124gr in a ported barrel or compensator?
This is not recommended. The FMJ bullet has a plated copper jacket rather than a full solid-drawn copper cup, and the thin plating can be stripped by the ports on a ported barrel or compensator, which creates a safety hazard. For ported setups, a true TMJ or jacketed round without plating is the better call.
What is the difference between the 50-round box and the 1000-round case?
The ammo itself is identical. The 1000-round case is simply 20 boxes of 50 rounds packed together as a case lot, which is the most cost-effective way to buy if you shoot regularly. The case format is also convenient for storage and range transport.
Is CCI Blazer Brass made in the USA?
Yes, it is manufactured in Lewiston, Idaho, at CCI's main production facility. Every round is built to SAAMI specifications and backed by ISO-certified quality control processes. CCI is one of the most established ammunition manufacturers in the country.
Will this 9mm ammo run reliably in my pistol?
CCI Blazer Brass has a strong track record of reliable function across a wide range of 9mm handguns, from compact carry pistols to full-size range guns. The 124gr FMJ profile feeds smoothly in almost any standard magazine and chamber combination. Like any ammunition, results can vary with older or heavily worn firearms, but this load is about as dependable as range ammo gets.
