    Everyone on here has pretty good things to say on it. I have used probably somewhere in the ballpark of 2k of it, and haven't had a single problem.

    I believe that midway link is for sorted ammo in 50 rd. boxes, not the bulk over run boxes at palmetto state. Gotta watch out, as some of the bulk blazer is made by federal :tdown:

    Blazer is my new favorite...I picked up 2 bricks at the york show last month, after my winchester white value box from walmart ran out. I have had maybe 2 problems (1 just wouldn't go off, and 1 was a failure to chamber because of a dirty gun after about 500 rnds) over a span of close to 1000 rnds so far. Dicks usually has bricks on sale for $20... $0.4 a round.

    Just watch out - SOME of the blazer 525 bulk boxes are made by federal and are not nearly as good as the cci manufactured ammo. You want ammo with a cci lot number like A12B34, the federal lot numbers start with a number like 1AB234. This lot number issue applies to the cci sv also as federal makes some of the lots.

    CCI, Blazer and Federal are brands that one company, ATK, owns. Are they running separate factories or is there one factory that uses a different head stamp depending on what "brand" they are making?

    Separate factories, federal makes SOME ammo with cci headstamp (blazers, sv), cci makes SOME federal headstamp ammo (walmart champion). That's why you need to look at the lot number to tell which factory made it.
