I didn't know just where to put this, so I guess this is as good as any. I recently bought some Blazer 22's and all though, they are reliable with good consistency. They have a problem that I felt should be brought up, that is that the bullet is covered with wax. If you use one of the fast loading tools Like the Ultimate clip loader, You will find that after you use it for a short time, you will find that loading becomes more and more difficult. The bullets deposit the wax all over the inside of the loader and the bullets start jamming up and will not load correctly, requiring that the loader be completely disassembled an cleaned. In Addition the wax is also transfered to the magazine and even if you load the magazine by hand, build up also becomes a problem, especially when out at the range when the weather is warm and the wax become more fluid. I have sent an email to CCI pointing out the problem and that although I was happy with the the bullets in general, I could no longer purchase them until this problem has been corrected.

Karl, Thanks for the heads up. I do believe that these are the same ones my son-in-law bought at Cabela's. Are these the coated lead? If so I'll have to look at my grandson's Mossberg 715 AR style 22 they were having some problems and it might be that.

yes they are the lead round nose ones you can tell just by scraping them with your thumb nail.
