Just got my 15-22 MOE and the local retailers have these bulk packs. Both are about the same price per round so I'm wondering if one is better than the other function wise. Accuracy I realize is a different question and one that I will have to figure out for my gun.

I like the blazers better. I get duds with the fed bulk. Shot thousands of blazers and no duds.:D Is that really a 14-22 not a 15-22
 
Doz is right, CCI is best for going bang every time, but federal is cheaper. i have gone thru quite a few bricks of federal and ive had maybe 8 or 9 FTF. CCI ive had zero. all depends on what you want to spend. when im just pokin paper, federal. when i sight in a new scope/reddot CCI.
 
Both are about the same. A few less duds with CCI Blazer. I would, and do, happily run both through my 15-22. However my GSG 1911 22 prefers Fed bulk so that's usually what I buy.
 
I don`t shoot Blazers because of the lead. (Very Dirty )
I either shoot Mini-Mags or Feds. I`ve been told one breath of lead stays in your system 40 yrs. I`m bad enough on my system, I`ll keep the lead to a minimum.

Your Mini mags and Feds have lead in the priming compound. You'd better stay away from those. As well as all standard centerfire ammunition. And guns in general if you are scared of lead. :rolleyes:
 
yeah, for that very reason I only pretend to shoot my gun. which is nice because I can shoot in my living room, never actually have to sight anything in, and don't worry about the cost of ammo. my sound effects are getting pretty good too...

but seriously, impurities store in our fat cells which is partially how studies can claim the longevity of contaminants in our body. I imagine the amount of time and ammunition it would take for the trace amounts of lead a shooter is exposed to, to actually cause physical harm make the risk negligible.

I'm buying blazers for $13.99 a brick and bulk federal at wally world is $18.97. Me think the blazers are cheaper. Now the federal 510's are $17.77 at wally world. It's not in bulk, but the blazer's are still cheaper !!!:D
 
I thought the 525 Blazer packs were made by Federal? haha.
 
Thought I read somewhere here (or Calguns) that Federal owns CCI? So the 525 pack is from federal's factory and the 500's are CCI. I dunno, maybe it's the vapor from Hoppes #9 or something :D

That`s the beauty of America you can buy what you want. I`m not scared of lead , I just chose to shoot a cleaner round.
 
I have a few value packs of CCI Blazer (lead) and Federal (copper) saved up for my 15-22 MOE that I'm picking up in a few days. Both ammo runs flawless through my other .22LR guns, so I'll be using those for my 15-22.

The only thing I won't do, which I don't do on any of my guns, is switch between lead & copper ammo before cleaning my gun. Whether or not this will actually make a difference or hurt anything, it's more of a personal preference of mine.
