dunno.Well was the wind Full Value Right to Left?
That group looks like a full value from the right , yup no way its you, loldunno.
it was pretty calm, almost no wind, but 22lr does not need much.
I Have not bought Blazer ammo in decades. It used to be reliable, better than the Thunderbolt for plinking ammo.Is it me or is this ammo wack? Im shooting pistols today and Im getting duds every 10 rounds or so. Mad annoying.

Doesn't say, but Im sure its in the last year or two. I have a Beretta 92 22lr that freakin never fails to fire (I fire off duds in it all the time) and the blazer primer was pretty inconsistent.Whats the production date.
Blazer is pure plinkshit ammo

I always thought that Thunderbolt used leaves and rabbit pellets as propellant. Those rounds were filthy.Blazer .22LR is the bargain basement of the Federal/CCI product line so you probably should not be surprised.
Well I guess that might not be true since Vista acquired Remington in 2020.
Cough, thunderbolt, cough, bullshit, cough, cough!
Remains to be seen if after the purposed sale of all of Vista’s ammo holdings to the new owners, Czechoslovak Group (CSG), they consider consolidating the product line.
New post consolidation, ThunderBlaze! skinflint .22LR
Been buying federal automatch for many years. Not the most accurate available but it is good for plate whacking and plinking very few duds.I run Federal AutoMatch in my Walther p22 and in my Ruger MKI. I never have a problem. I think it is the same price as Blazer.
On Midway, Blazer is 1¢ more per round. I would buy Federal over Blazer even if it were (not a lot) more.
Was shooting Automatch yesterday. Tons of FTF in a Ruger Charger, moved on to an AR 15 with a .22 conversion, same thing. Switched to CCI Standard velocity, and had no more problems. Maybe a bad batch. Never had a problem with it before.Been buying federal automatch for many years. Not the most accurate available but it is good for plate whacking and plinking very few duds.
For hunting purposes I use cci standard for the most part it's accurate let's face it.....22lr is to a squirrel what 50 bmg is to 2 legged vermin. I hear debates all the time about what's "best on squirrel"......ffs.....the best 22 on squirrel is what's most accurate in your rifle......even regular old lead round nose will devastate a squirrel.

My dad would always tell us anytime you change ammo type you need to clean your gun especially the chamber. 22 long rifle his theory will always was.Was shooting Automatch yesterday.
