Whatever happened to Federal and Blazer .22LR?

[Wendell]

All I see nowadays is Winchester and Remington. Did something happen with the (Federal and Blazer) importer?

Picked up 5k of the CCI blazer on Boxing Day. I thinking the federal version of blazer no longer exists

I think Tenda had Blazer on sale last week.

Perhaps CCI decided they did not need the additional capacity of the Blazer I believe they were contracted to Federal to produce

Canadian Tire may have some.

 

[Butcherbill]

Lots of it In my end of the world, which is good as my .22 loves Federal ammo.

I see Federal .22 ammo on the shelves here at Cabela's.

I stacked it deep years back when the CCI made stuff was more common here.

There are gun shops in my area still selling it.

In my experience the CCI Blazer was far more reliable and consistent. The Federal made stuff was weaker and varied wildly from round to round. You could clearly hear the difference shot to shot.

Federal is pretty easy to find around here.

That's what I found but Blazer just did not seem to make it to the shops in this area
