Blazer Brass, Winchester White Box, or Remington Green Box?

Sounds good, Clean97GTI. The guys over on CZ Forum report some problems with their P-01's and WWB. They avoid it.

I think any ammo will function slightly differently in another gun, more or less. So it just seems to be what makes it a paricularly good fit in a certain gun.

I used to have a CZ-75 and it never jammed on anything. Nice pistol.

I've never had any reliability trouble with WWB in my CZ75B, but I seem to shoot noticeably less accurately with it. I have a lot more fliers with WWB, than Blazer Brass or Green Box. Sometimes I shoot WWB just to save money, but when accuracy is more important I spend the extra buck for one of the other two. I'm trying to figure out which is more accurate--BB or GB.

That's funny, I can buy 50 rounds of Remington Green box for $6 at wal mart here, but the WWB is about $10. So for me the green box is cheaper.

Which is generally cheaper in your area?

Prices already given seem right. Think WWB is cheapest but they're close enough to nullify price, at least here in NoVA. Note the only UMC I've shot are the JHP 100/packs ($13.98/100 pk), not the FMJs.

Which is cleaner?

Order: Blazer, WWB is close second and UMC/Remington being a distant third (never seen dirtier stuff than UMC).

Which is more accurate?

Order of most to least accurate: Blazer, UMC/Remington then WWB. But I am such a lousy shot that this should be taken with a grain of salt.

WalMarts around here sell 9mm in the brands above for the following price:

Well, I can only consistently find the WWB at the Wal-Marts around here. When they have Blazer or the UMC JHPs, I buy those too. I like to run all three in one session. If I find the UMC FMJs, will buy those too. Hope this helps.

Geojap, that WWB price should be for 100 rounds, not 50.

Blazer Brass is cheapest here. My WalMart has Blazer Brass 45ACP for $9.98 a box of 50.

BTW I just ran 200 rounds of Blazer through my Kimber last Saturday and it was great. Accurate and totally reliable. Would buy more in a heartbeat.

Somewhat inspired by this thread, I bought two boxes each of Blazer Brass and Remington Green Box last night. They were $5.97 each for 50 rounds, wheareas the WWB I usually buy was $11.34 for 100 rounds. So price is close enough for quality to be the determining factor in which one I stick with. I'll probably go to the range tonight so I guess I can report on how dirty they are tomorrow. I most likely won't be able to judge accuracy since I can't shoot well enough for it to matter, but I'll do my best.
