They had the Blazer Brass but the idiot wokring there couldn't find the key to the cabinet. I got tired of waiting on the incompetent help and left. I went back 2 days later and they were out. They were still out as of yesterday.

Heh, I waited 15+ minutes for the guy to return with the key. But before that, he approached ME asking if I needed any help. Just took him a while to find that key I guess

Ammo hog! Thats just plain mean!

I live about 5 minutes from that store...

Me too, the apartments behind baybrook mall :)

I'm not really familiar with what it takes for a cartridge to be a good IDPA one, never done any of that stuff.

I've shot probly a thousand rounds of it, but it's all been through my G23 which is my carry weapon, and I usually do things like send two targets downrange and practice shooting multiple spots quickly, drawing from holster, etc. So I never really try to shoot through the same hole every time ya know?

All I can say is that they're fairly clean shooting, and are of consistent quality (out of the ~1000 I've shot, never had any clog up due to OAL differences or anything).

What is "your area" exactly?

Just came back from the walmart at 45 and Eldorado down here in friendswood, I've NEVER checked their ammo prices there, for some reason.

Anyway, they've got the .40 blazer brass 50rd. (180gr. fmj) boxes for $7.57 a box. I bought all they had... haha, but you guys can keep an eye out at least. That was 500rds for 81.96 after tax. 1000rds. @ 164 dollars is a nice price for factory new stuff.
If you reload you may not care, but I don't (yet... if I can keep getting it at this price, I may keep buying factory for a while).

They had 10 boxes in stock today till I bought it all, so check back in a week or so :)

The walmart on my side of town (rosenberg) USED to have good prices on this same ammo, but now it's up to like 9.87 or something in that area. Last time I bought, I bought 1000rds from natchez with free shipping, for like 160ish dollars... but hell, this matches that.
