| How does Blazer 40gr (00021) compare to CCI Standard Velocity (0035)? Is CCI worth the extra $1 per 50rds? |
|
Quoted:
Blazer = Goes subsonic at 35 yards. SV = Subsonic, more drop at distance They have the same accuracy at 25 yards. Blazer opens up a bit after 35 yards, but still plenty accurate. I shoot blazer bc my .22 AR has a 4.5" barrel. both are excellent. So if I want the quieter rd, SV is worth the extra $1? |

Of course, if quiet is worth money and you can find it, and you're not shooting a semi-auto, try CB Long/Shorts.

I think CCI SV is the most accurate of the lower priced domestic ammo varieties. Its the only ammo in its price range which will consistently shoot 1/2" or better at 50 yards out of my KIDD 10/22s. It's the only ammo I shoot out of my BR rifles than match ammo like Eley, Lapua or SK/Wolf.
If I were plinking, shooting offhand or out of a rifle that isn't really capable of taking advantage of more expensive ammo, I'd probably buy the Blazer. I've always heard very good things about it. I never really consider it mainly because it's high velocity...standard/subsonic ammo is almost always a better choice if you are looking to get every .1" of accuracy. |

How is Federal Auto Match .22LR 40gr Lead Round Nose AM22? Automatch is excellent ammo. Some of the bulk packed blazer is actually automatch. I like the older style blazer with the flat driving bands. Blazer is my favorite accurate do everything round. The standard velocity and subsonic CCI stuff is better for suppressed shooting. Very accurate. |

Blazer wasn't subsonic for me with a RAR and Spectre II I don't believe they are made subsonic nor claim to. They're just accurate as hell with normal shooting. CCI subsonic is the only way to go when using a can. I know it's all *I* use when using my can. My .o2 |
