CCI .22LR Blazer Ammo O.K.?

[BruceV]

Cool! I was hoping that they would be at least as good as the normal popularly price .22LR that I've always bought for me and my daughters to shoot. It's never been a problem to find Federal, Winchester or Remington .22LR ammunition. I just always went and got what I wanted and took the girls shooting.

I went to Wal-Mart just to see what was there and was told they would not have any more 500/525-550 rd. boxes by any manufacturer. Their shelf price for Rem. .22LR Thunderbolts was $1.99/50rds. Winchester .22LR Wildcats were $3.19/50rds.

I went back to the new store and was told they had instituted a limit of one brick/customer/day. He said all ammunition was going up. His price for Rem. .38 Special 125 gr. HP was .... $40.25/50 rds.!!! I told him that price was ridiculous. I guess I'll buy what I can of the CCI Blazers and try to find some small pistol primers so I can load up some .38 Special or maybe some .357 Magnum for my revolver. Sincerely. BruceV

I remember one dud round of this CCI maybe 20 years ago. Beyond that it is fine. I have small quantities of SuperX .22LR that are maybe 40 years old. I save this for shooting in my Model 41 as I believe they just can't duplicate the quality of the old stuff today. Remarkably the most troublesome 22 shells I have are Stingers I think made by Federal. They are high velocity but jam in several of my .22s. I like all of CCIs products.
