Default Aluminum bullet cassings

What do toy think about bullets that are in aluminum instead of brass ?

I was told that they can't be reloaded.

Is this true or can you reload them?

Thank You?

I think you are talking about Blazer Ammo (cases); I don't think they are reloadble. Good luck.

They have Berdan primers and wouldn't be worth the effort if you refer to blazer ammo .

When I see them in the trash can at the range they don't bother me a bit.

When I see them up in the hills scattered around with the empty boxes and shot up targets/debris they kinda piss me off.

I agree with Ktscontender, pick up your trash, more and more land is being closed becouse of trash. The aluminum cases can be recycled. I'm not a treehugger but everything has it's place, and the woods is not the place for trash. Damn trash winds me up!

Anything can be reloaded, but being that they are aluminum cases, they probably aren't as strong as brass, and might not be safe to reload.

Seems to me Blazer ammo says right on the box non reloadable.

How in the world did an issue of reloading aluminum cases turn into a trash and polution discussion?

Come on BC, get with the program, hold hands and sing "We are the World" and repent for fouling our precious Mother Earth with lead bullets and nonreloadable casings
