I've heard that the CC1 Blazers (aluminum jacketed) are crap, so I stay away from those.
Is Wolf brand any good? Supposedly they have a coating that some people do not like.
What about Aguila?
Looking for FMJ .45 target rounds, and I found a web site that has the Wolf and Aguila fairly cheap (under 30 cents per round).

You're using an XD if I remember correctly. Excellent weapon BTW, but those cheap rounds can go either way for you. Best to try them before commiting to large orders and see how it goes. I never had any prob's with brass but when I fed my XD steel cased rounds I had trouble so I don't use them. Nothing wrong with trying those rounds out and seeing what happens for you though...Now if you begin having feeding issues that's one thing, but if you have rounds that didn't go bang sitting in the chamber that's a whole different safety issue...stop using them after that...don't forget to wait at least 15-20 seconds with it pointing down range as it may still fire under these circumstances...the nice thing about an XD is that you KNOW there's a round in the chamber before pulling the trigger and can identify the problem right away..I'd love to hear what your results are if you do try those rounds.
