I can't remember having a Minimag fail to fire on me after firing a couple thousand rounds. On some of the cheaper bulk stuff, I normally get a few duds every hundred rounds. Usually not a problem when plinking except it's irritating having to clear a jam. It is a problem when shooting a .22 competition though. Also they tend to shoot cleaner than the cheap stuff which gums up my handgun after a while.
These rounds fall between cheap stuff, and match grade stuff in price. I've seen on some forums that CCI Blazers are minimags without the copper coating and nice boxes, which could save you a bunch more money.
Not a bad deal, but I'll pass. I don't like the big brother aspects of shopping in WalMart anymore. The dept of homeland security is asking people to report suspicious activity and has cameras in the check stands for such. I am not a threat, but to some people who don't like guns and see me buying 2 boxes for a weekend of plinking. I don't need the hassle. Thanks for the deal, though.
green for the post. In my opinion, these are good for target shooting/practice, I have had a lot of misfires and jams with these.But that is with a cheap marlin .22. Even after I polished the feed ramp. But still a good post.
will a .22 work during a zombie attack. I know it may take more than 1 shot with them but will they be effective. Wanting to stock up. Zombies could come at any time. Thankx

Possibly, if they have soft heads. But i wouldn't use anything less than .223. A shotgun is best in a frantic situation.

Can you point to any source on this? I bought 1k blazers a while back for a deal and they SUCK in my 10/22. I can't get through a 25-rd mag without at LEAST one jam if not more. I'm not sure if it under or over powers the gun, but the casing of the fired round gets stuck still ejecting from the chamber! I'm thinking it's over powered based on the powder burns I keep getting and the fact that the next round does get mostly chambered.

Best just to keep multiple firearms of any kind around. Shotty's gonna be best if they get up close, but you're not going to have a lot of rounds to work with so you better clear a path and run like hell. Keep the rifle for keeping them at range and have a handgun for when the shotty runs out. And remember...always keep that last bullet least you want to add to their guts or their numbers.

you sir have a lot of experience killing zombies?
Yes, i am a master at zombie mode on Call of Duty: Black Ops... I figure, it's the closest i'm getting until the real thing....
I just bought some CCI mini mag 1600 round 22lr yesterday for 80$. But that's because I work at an ammo place, I was looking to shoot it all but I'm seeing all the shortages an I'm think of not opening it and wait and see, bcz right now I'm seeing the same can I have for 350$ and there still bidding hmmm... Things might get crazy!
Not selling it yet, ima see if things get crazy. I work at an ammo place and sell guns there, and I was told things are going to get worse. I got 3000 rounds of LR ammo but I'm not gunna open that mini mag just incase. I have rich people come to my work and they will only shoot CCI ammo. There really picky!
