Home Forums Lever Action Central Lever Actions - General 357 Blazer in a lever gun question

I am considering a 357 BL 92. I was reading on some site about not shooting Blazer ammo in lever guns. Does anyone know why??

Aluminum case and the way some lever actions lock up IIRC.

I used to have a trails end (still kicking myself for selling it) but I shot a few blazer 44 specials thru it. Now by a few I mean less then a box.

I tried the aluminum cased Blazers in my 1894C and it didn't work out well. The bullets kept getting pushed further into the case by magazine spring pressure.

I've not used Blazer in my Browning. However, it feeds so nice with my reloads I'd sure try Blazer before writing them off. If you do not reload, they will save you a fair amount of money.
