Have not heard of any problems with blazer.

If you can find any I would suggest CCI STD

don't have a HD Military, but do have a  HS Citation and SW M41.... both shoot Winchester Super X and CCI Green Tag pretty well...

I had a buddy who had a High Standard .22 when we were in college.  As you stated the tolerances are tight.  Every shooting session he would have to tear it down, use some solvent/brush/patches to clean up the back end on it so he could keep shooting.  He'd get just under 2 boxes through it before he started having problems.

If I had your gun and wanted to keep it/shoot it, I'd take it to a gunsmith and see if he could rechamber it.  A new chambering reamer might open it up enough to make it reliable.

Oh, my buddy shot Eley match ammo in his High Standard and still had the reliability issues when it got a little dirty.  It shot nice groups, for just over a box of ammo.

Sounds like weak springs to me. Replace them. If memory serves Wolf sells a spring pack for it.

Try different standard velocity brands. The older HSs were not designed to use HV ammo. No use beating it to death.
