I don't recall reading it or anyone telling us we couldn't use reloads for qualification but I have slept since then.
Do you have the specific document that stated this?
Was at our local wally world today for some shopping. Checked out the ammo and there was no pistol and very little rifle ammo. Shotgun shells were there but not the usual huge display like one normally sees. While standing there three folks asked about 9mm. The salesman showed them the empty shelves. Frank

This is from the DPS website on CHL information, at the FAQ section, under Training Information, question #27. It even says that they "recommend" SAAMI certified ammo, but I guess that is not required. LOL
My instructor says that during the instructor's course and during their tange training they were told "factory ammo only" and their ammo was checked at the range. FWIW
One of our local instructors provides the ammo that will be used, purchased at at a discount from the range store and paid for by the students. It's cheaper than buying it anywhere else around that way, and the range keeps a very large stockpile for times such as these, so nobody really complains.
