CCI's Blazer brings something different to the 10mm Auto world with their aluminum-cased 200gr TMJ load. The lightweight cases trim several ounces off your ammo can without sacrificing performance where it counts. With a moderate velocity of 1050 fps, this heavy-for-caliber projectile delivers consistent 490 ft-lbs of energy downrange - plenty for building confidence with the platform without beating up your gun or your shoulder.

That hefty 200-grain bullet does something interesting - it helps tame the snappy recoil typical of lighter 10mm loads while maintaining enough momentum to cycle reliably. The aluminum cases extract smoothly and help reduce fatigue during long range sessions. Think of it as strength training with lighter weights but more reps - you're building fundamental skills without developing bad habits from fighting excessive recoil.

For shooters looking to master their 10mm Auto platform without draining their wallet, this load makes perfect sense. The moderate pressure means less wear on your pistol's frame and barrel, while the TMJ bullet design keeps your barrel cleaner between cleanings. It's particularly well-suited for action shooting practice or getting comfortable with a new 10mm handgun. Just keep in mind that aluminum cases aren't reloadable - but at these prices, you probably won't mind.
