Here is a pic of a new once fired Blazer Aluminum case that I obtained from a fellow shooter yesterday. I removed the primer and it's indeed a berdan primed case. On the case head it's stamped, CCI NR 45acp. I am quessing that the NR means "Not Reloadable."
Taking a needle nosed plier and trying to peel the case showed just how brittle it is after firing. It simply breaks apart in pieces. I would hope this ends the debate on re-using any aluminum case.
